...Brook's poem, "Half-Sight," haffles the understanding of the reviewer. The title seems appropriate. H. Hagedorn's "The Confession" is a remarkably well sustained poem, considering the difficulty of the subject. It rises...

...fair trial. Class buttons in the Senior year seem an unnatural way of bringing classmates together. After living for three years within the University and participating in its various activities, it is not likely that two men who have never before met should be induced by the sight of a button to become close friends. They may, however, be led to recognize each other as members of the same class, and if occasion is offered will be more likely to accost a follow classman than a stranger without the class insignia...

Far off in Cambridge only the fame of the CRIMSON is heard. The score was 16 to 14. All Lampy's bombs, jeers, kicks, jokes (?), beer, cheers, and bean blowers were of no avail before the cool experts of the pride of American journalism. Nothing could overtax the nerve of the men who had braved the terrors of Memorial Hall's fishballs. Small fry from...

...Dramatic Society, which shall unite the best talent now scattered over a large number of club performances. The highly satisfactory performances of this week in the Elizabeth Cary Agassiz House indicate what might be done by such a union, and there is reason to hope that it is within sight. The author of the article on "Crew Prospects" writes with an assurance very impressive to the ignorant layman. The reviewer gathers that the Varsity eight is to be beaten by Cornell and Yale, but that the Freshman and the four should win at New London. We shall...
