...Morris chairs, and the family silver. He was more than good: he was better. Although his diction shows contact with chronic dyspepsia, his range is excellent. In truth when he eclipsed high C.

The small eels that return by the myriad are at least a year old, having developed out of a larval stage which Science long took to be a distinct species of surface-dwelling fish, leptocephali, notable for their complete lack of reproductive organs. The presence of eels in waters blocked from the sea by high falls, and in land-locked ponds and lakes, is readily accounted for by the eel's ability to live a long time out of water, to travel considerable distances overland at night, through...

The whole of last year's foils team was lost by graduation, and lack of experience is liable to prove the greatest handicap to the development of the squad. The swordsmen upon whom Coach Danguy is counting to form the nucleus of his team are Captain R. P. Outer bridge '28, A. C. Lane '27, J. F. Davidson '27, M. R. Berliner '28, and G. H. Umbsen '29, who was captain of last year's Freshman duellers...
