Dartmouth Night

The usual Dartmouth Night exercises were held in Webster Hall on the evening of September 30. If the occasion lacked something of the spontaneity of the former times in Old Chapel and later in College Hall, it was fully up to the more dignified standards set since its removal to Webster. The speeches, all of which expressed the Dartmouth Spirit of unity and loyalty, were of unusual excellence. After President Nichols, who acted as presiding officer, had concluded his opening remarks, he introduced the following speakers: Judge David Cross '41, of Manchester; C. F. Mathewson, Esq., '82, of New York; A. O. Brown, Esq., '70 of Manchester; the Rev. B. T. Marshall '97, of New Rochelle; Professor Craven Laycock '96, of Hanover; the Honorable Melvin O. Adams '71, of Boston. At intervals during the evening the Glee Club sang familiar airs in which the student body joined. The exercises closed with the Dartmouth Song.
