SCHOOL NEWS.
HOTCHKISS SCHOOL.
The Glee Club under the direction of
Mr. A. B. Hall, Yale ’99, is develop-
ing into the best club ever at the school,
the Mandolin and Banjo Clubs are up
to the standard and there is every
chance for a first class concert in Feb-
ruary.
The St. Luke’s Society is doing excel-
lent work and the meetings are always
full. Following the custom at Yale, the
system of systematic giving has been
adopted and is working splendidly.
ANDOVER.
All of the Andover publications are in
a flourishing condition. The Philliptan
last term was rather lifeless; but this
term a decided improvement is shown.
With the recent addition of several new
members to the Editorial Board, still
further improvement is likely. The
Mirror is in a better condition than ever
before. The Pot Pourri promises to be
a great success. Several new artists of
unusual ability will draw for it this year.
The hockey season at Andover had a
rather inauspicious opening, January 13,
the team being defeated by Newtown
A. A. 6 to o. The home team showed
lack of experience and poor team work;
although at times there was some good
individual playing. Newtown played a
hard, swift game, showing great experi-
ence. Andover lacked two of her best
men, who were kept out on account of
poor scholarship.
The veteran Seniors held their ban-
quet at the Franklin House in Lawrence
Saturday evening, January 20, and the
affair was a success. Fred Lewis Col-
lins was toastmaster.
Tuesday evening, January 23, the
dramatic club gave a vaudeville perfor-
mance in the town hall for the benefit
of the Athletic Association, which was
a great success. This was a new ven-
ture on the part of the dramatic club
and President H. B. Noble and the
members who took part deserve much
credit for its success. The music was
furnished by the Glee Club and was
unusually fine. F. G. Becker appeared
as a magician. His skill in this line
is worthy of a professional. G. R.
Spencer did the sand dance in style. A
trio, composed of J. S. Seabury, E. L.
Barney and L. S. Tyler rendered a coon
medley that brought down the house.
“Two Swells,” a tramp sketch by G. A.
Childs and L. B. Sheldon, was considered
by many the best thing on the program.
“The Veneered Savage,’ a two act
farce, closed the entertainment.
All the parts were played in fine style.
The cast:
Miss Low Usmyton::.. ...... N. F. Bartlett.
Miss Madge Dayton..... N. R. Becker.
The Duchess of Diddlesex..F. K. Hill.
Lady see es 2 S.-H Elrich.

The hall was crowded, many people
from outside of Andover being present.
The Society of Inquiry has changed
its regular Wednesday evening meeting
to a Bible Class with Mr. L. W. Snell,
P. A. ‘9%; Of the Theological Seminary,
as instructor.
The Winter baseball practice is going
on in the old gymnasium. Seven of

new material to make the outlook very
promising.

finitely of the team, but the outlook is
promising, six of last year’s players be-
ing back. Captain Carpenter has sepa-

gin immediately.
