...distinguished member of the Music Department and composed the music for the Hasty Pudding Club theatricals. During the past year he has been studying the pianoforte in Paris with Harold Bauer, and thus early in his career has attained the distinction of playing with the Kneisel Quartet. It would seem to be a natural act of courtesy on the part of all music lovers among the students to give Mr. Hall a cordial welcome at his appearance this evening. W. R. SPALDING...
...recent meeting of the Faculty, a resolution was passed to the effect "That all committees on prizes shall report not only the essays for which prizes are awarded, but also those essays which seem to be worthy of distinction; and all essays reported shall be considered in the award of scholarships and the granting of degrees with distinction."

Is, however, his criticism of our immersion in athletic, club and other college interests--to the "detriment with us, unfortunately of the larger vision"--truly sympathetic and pro-found? The activities and institutions with which he finds fault are, after all, what few marks we have left of a distinctly collegiate way of living, and the culture of them is but a natural devotion to what later cannot be paralleled...
