...book might be "English 47-ized" to great advantage. The first and third acts are decidedly weak, even for comic opera, and the situation in Act II when Felix is surrounded by wives and applicants for position is rather ineffective. The music, decidedly interesting in places, lacks the rhythm is essential to popularity. But possibly this is a virtue not a vice...
...School in Concord on Saturday afternoon by a 5 to 1 score. The playing of the St. Paul's men was in every way an improvement over their work against the Yale freshmen a week before, their defense being practically impregnable. The Freshman defense, on the other hand, was weak; and it was owing to this, that the team lost the game, for its attack was better than at any time previous this year, and fully as good as that of St. Paul's. Claflin carried the puck down the rink well, but otherwise the four men who played...
...Freshmen, and of Donner and Murchie for Andover; and there were few evidences of any team-work.

Two of deWindt's goals were scored entirely through his own efforts on long dashes down the rink, and all the other goals were made through individual quickness or ability. The defence...
...Freshman hockey team defeated Milton Academy in a slow game at Milton last Saturday by the score of 3 to 1. The team-work of the Freshmen was especially poor and the passing was very weak. Wigglesworth at goal, however, played a good game, and it was largely owing to his superiority over Weld that Milton lost. Milton fought hard throughout, and held the Freshmen to no score during the second half...
