...interested in the recent communication of "Junior" inquiring why the salary of the steward of Randall Hall was raised. Not being good at guessing enigmas, I shall not attempt to answer it, more than to say that he doubtless needs the money. The steward at Memorial, in order to get his salary, is obliged to guarantee the cost of board, which, notwithstanding the increased cost of meats, etc., is virtually what it was last year, while prices at Randall are much higher.

...acting, the comedy was given very successfully. The cast of characters was as follows: Frau von Grvmbach, P. G. Robinson '03. Malwina, her daughter, F. Watson '02. Franz Von Grumbach, Malwina's cousin, H. J. Davenport '00. Adelheid Hopfstengel, Malwina's governess, E. B. Ahlborn '02. Andreas Sangerhaus, the steward, A. N. Fuller '00. Maid, A. Drinkwater...

H. J. Davenport '00, the fun-loving student, and A. N. Fuller '00, the ungrammatical steward, though inclined to be rather stiff at first, seemed to forget themselves later and succeeded in putting a good deal of humor in their parts. P. G. Robinson '03 lacked force. A. Drinkwater '00 carried a small part successfully...
...farce, "Als Verlobte Empfehlen Sich," will be given. The play was written by Wichert. Following are the characters: Frau von Grumbach, P. G. Robinson '03; Franz von Grumbach, H. J. Davenport '00; Malwina, the daughter, F. Watson '02; Adelheid Hopfstengel, E. B. Ahlborn '02; Andreas Sangerhaus, the steward, A. N. Fuller '00; and the maid, A. Drinkwater '00. This farce, and others not yet chosen, will take the place of the usual Verein play, this year, since the production of of "Iphigenie,: by Mr. Conried's company, will make a long and elaborate play undesirable...
