...versatile performers than the University, was the cause of the distinctly up-hill nature of the struggle for the University team. The latter, however, gave an excellent exhibition, and Captain W. Campbell '16 was well up to his usual form, securing one first and three second places. Campbell proved equal to the first position in the parallel bars, and to second man in the horizontal bar, the flying rings, and the side-horse...
From the standpoint of costumes and scenic effects, the Pi Eta production for 1916 is fully the equal of any undergraduate performance of its kind in recent years.

Thacher '18 played his wing position with versatility and with another year's experience should be almost equal to Percy in all-round usefulness. M. Taylor '18, who became eligible only at the last of the season, and W. O. P. Morgan '18 turned out to be valuable second-string men. H. M. Bliss '17, R. Baldwin '17, and L. M.
