...Slant-eyed Cubist Queen" is the second newly added number. It will be sung by Joseph Larocque Jr. '23 assisted by a special-chorus of "cubist queens" composed of D. S. Elisworth '22, J. G. Flint '24, G. L. Paine Jr. '22, and John McDuffie...
...plays. It is a sombre piece; there is scarcely a laugh in it. It has none of the sparkle of "Believe Me, Xantippe", nor the comedy shadings of "Mamma's Affair". Nor it is a thesis play like "Common Clay". There is behind it no idea, no criticism, no "slant" on Life such as we are accustomed to look for in the "serious" plays of today.

They have taken delight in the clandestine publication of orders. They have demanded attendance at lectures announced three hours before their occurrence. They have even advocated battalion parade in columns of squads...
...Cambridge high jumpers are T. M. Jennings and A. B. Johnston. Johnston will also attempt to throw the sixteenpound hammer. He approaches his take off at a slant, has no great amount of spring, and clears the bar all doubled up, his body bent, as if he would grasp his feet and lift himself over. He gives the impression of attempting to sit on the bar. Jennings jumps in better form, taking off usually straight ahead, although he sometimes affects the slanting run. It is probable that the high jump will go to Cambridge, as neither Thompson nor Sheldon...
