...given by the Harvard Club of New York to last year's victorious teams. About forty members of the Harvard Club, including President Wetmore and Secretary Alexander, sat down with the guests. After the dinner, which was closed by the singing of Fair Harvard and a toast to Alma Mater, an adjournment was made to the Harvard Club, where an informal reception and meeting was held. Speeches were made by President Wetmore, C. M. Sheafe 2L., W. T. Reid '01 and C. D. Daly '01. After the meeting supper was served, and the remainder of the evening was devoted...

Men engaged in the serious work of life go to a Glee Club concert to renew their relations with their Alma Mater and to live over, to some extent, their college days. If the concert does not satisfy this desire it is a failure. To demand, therefore, that the club shall not sing light and happy music is to impose upon it a condition that will doom it to failure...
