After having been graduated from Harvard, I am inclined to doubt the existence of a "Harvard type" as such. Among graduates of Harvard there may be snobs--those who would deny it most strenuously are very likely to be those most open to fault--but certainly they are not numerous, no more so than graduates of other colleges, at least. Whether the "type" to which Arthur Train refers was more prevalent in the earlier days of Harvard, when the student body was more localized in its geographical distribution than at present, is a question which I do not feel competent...
This success is due largely to the type of program that the Club offers. Breaking away, for the most part, from the time-worn college Glee Club rah-rah program, the organization presents selections from the greatest of modern choral numbers. It caters to the taste of true music lovers and endeavors to raise the standards of male choral work in the West, thus doing for the Coast what Harvard has done for the East. For its popular concerts it has prepared a program of lighter numbers and carries with if soloists, stunt men, and a complete college orchestra. This...
...advances daily nearer. General Maitrot, a Frenchman, has made a forecast of the future that is half vision and half possibility. France, he says, has since the armistice developed projectiles so powerful that a dozen of them would wipe out a city the size of Berlin. Another type of bomb, lately perfected, will infallibly sink a cruiser at sea if exploded within a hundred feet of it. The Germans-General Maitrot seems to have certain information of this-are no more idle, the Krupp engineers have completed a 309 mm. quick-firing, soundless gun. They are working on a model...
Variety is the key-note of this week's bill at Keith's. The usual acrobatics, jazz, a monologue, skits, and a song-and-dance act of the old-fashioned type are combined to make up a light but very entertaining performance. The headliner is Nat Nazzaro, Jr., whose jazz band fairly makes the house rock in rhythm. The dancing of Viola May in this act is decidedly worthy of the Coconut Grove in New York...
...Fenno have been the outstanding men thus far, the former's brilliant drives and fast volleys being equalled only by the latter's steady aggressive style of play. Combined in a doubles team these two make an especially strong combination, and have been showing the best form in this type of play to the present time. E. W. Feibleman has a fast serve and a strong net attack which make him a promising player. P. L. Romaine '22 with a strong forehand drive has been working to advantage in a two-man team. R. B. Bradley '22 will probably retain...
