...Francis Boott Prize for this year has been awarded to Carl Keister McKinley '17, of Galesburg, Ill. Howard Gordon Bennett '17, of Peoria, Ill., received honorable mention. This prize consists of $100 and is awarded annually to the member of the University who writes the best composition in concerted vocal music...
...cast, Mr. Bushnell and Mr. J. H. Hotson were perhaps the best. Mr. Hardinge Scholle, in a small part, did his best to be sinister and disagreeable, but the role does not suit his character. The settings, though in no way remarkable, were extremely true to life, and mention should be made of the efficient shifting of scenes, saving one from the long waits usual on such occasions.

Auburn street dormitories, and is social enough to like to meet his friends in a social organization...
...Amory gives us a satisfactory treatise, it is marred by occasional crudities in composition. It fails to arouse live interest in the reader. Mr. Danner does better, though he too is occasionally careless in his writing. Also, why does he call it "Harvard Men--"? There is absolutely no mention of a University organization or even of individual Harvard men.
