...handles the oar. Minds, at No. 3, was also a substitute last year, but has shown improved form this season, and has earned his place by conscientious work. All the other men filled positions on the crew last year and show the value of their training. They are looking forward very anxiously to June 21, when they expect to win the race with Cornell and Columbia...
...hope that with the warm weather the glee club will soon begin its evening singing in the yard. Each year the students look forward to this with great pleasure, and each year they are able to enjoy it far less often than they would wish. There is no feature of the life in the College yard more delightful, none which will stay longer in the memory of students, than the singing on the steps of Holworthy.

About the middle came the parabasis, when the actors withdrew and the entire chorus came forward and amused the audience. Peculiar to the old comedy is the "agon," or contest, between the two chief actors. This was not clearly recognized until...
