This year the man of the hour is W. Egbert Howell '36, whose rise to fame reads like a repetition of Scott's story. Last year he was swimming for Levertt House. A month ago he was timed in 5 minutes and 58 seconds for the 440. Just before the Christmas recess, in the Alumni meet, he had clipped his time to 5:33 2-5. Just like the new star "Nova Herculis," Howell has risen from the 15th magnitude to the first magnitude in a month...

...that night the snake wriggled and twisted. Into the cellar next day flocked neigh bors to see the battle. The snake flipped and flopped; the spider watched and waited. On the third day came more neighbors, newshawks, cameramen. The contest was making national news. The snake, called Egbert by his backers, grew weak, stopped writhing. On the fourth day the snake recovered its strength, sought once more to free itself. How long the duel might have gone on no one could say, for that night an agent from the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals went into...
Robert L. McKee '37, in the character of "Percy the Prosperous," refrains from overacting in a part the satiric intention of which the author has spared no pains to underline. "Egbert the Eccentric" -- as the program will have it, Paul Killiam '37 -- is excellently cast as a gentlemen whose chief recreation consists in "fishing for flasks warmed on fat haunches."
