OUTING CLUB

The Outing Club has been very active this winter under the leadership of President W. L. White '12. The club has taken seven trips through the New Hampshire hills in the neighborhood of Hanover. On the whole they have been highly successful and enjoyable. A few frost-bitten ears and cheeks have resulted, and on one occasion a great scare was caused when it was thought that one of the men had been lost on the trip and frozen to death. Several searching parties went out in the middle of the night to search for the wanderer, but they were unsuccessful. About noon of the next day he came boldly into Hanover, announcing that he had been detained to supper and bed and breakfast by a hospitable farmer, "and seemed greatly surprised that anyone should have thought him lost or worth hunting at that. The last and longest of the Outing Club trips was that to Mount Washington on March 9, 10, and 11. Three men succeeded in reaching the summit of the mountain,the others contenting themselves with less ambitious climbs, such as to the Hermit Lake camps and the snow arch. No accidents marred the trip and the men all returned in good condition.
