He was a member of Palaeopitus and secretary of his class during his junior and senior years. He was on the Junior Prom committee, and also played in the band and the college orchestra. He is a member of the Sphinx senior society, of Rake and Roll and of the Kappa Kappa Kappa fraternity.

J. T. Gilman '05 of Boston was reelected as president of the Council and Prof. J. P. Richardson '99 was reelected as secretary. The membership of the Council for the coming year will include J. T.. Gilman '05, R. Parkhurst '16 of Winchester, Mass., and J. C. Wallace '07 of Cleveland, Ohio, as graduate representatives; Prof. J. P. Richardson '99, Prof. H. E. Burton and Prof. C. A.

The Cornell, Columbia and Brown games were designated as letter contests for the present season. To win his insignia a man must play for 15 minutes in one of these games.

Numerals will be awarded to freshmen who take part for the required time in the contests with the Brown freshmen and the Princeton freshmen.

The dual cross-country meet with Cornell at Hanover, the triangular meet with Harvard and Maine at Cambridge, and the quadrangular meet with Columbia, Cornell and Penn at New York will be the basis for the letter awards in this sport. Soccer men will be given their insignia for participation in the Harvard, M. I. T., and Princeton contests.
