...follow. The duties which devolved upon the committee with respect to the torchlight procession were so great that a sub-committee of thirteen was put in charge, and it is in their behalf that we desire to speak. Each class is to wear a distinctive uniform, and will present various additional features in the way of explaining the history of the college. Each man who cares to do so, is invited to prepare a transparency or special feature illustrative of some period of the university history, and carry it in the procession. All who have ideas upon the subject...

The large amount of petty annoyance that would be saved the instructor and the hundred and thirty men in the course is readily seen. As it is now, a half hours chase about Harvard Square is required to obtain a half dozen commonplace blanks, and there is every possibility that they may not be found even at that...
