The Freshman Banjo Club.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The Freshman Banjo Club suffered in common with the Glee Club, from a very late start, not getting to work till after Christmas. Since then, however, the men have been at work very steadily, and their progress has been, on the whole, better than that of the Glee Club, though their work is still far from satisfactory. Individually they play well, but as a whole they lack that dash and precision which come only from long practice. This lack of unity, however, is due more to the tardy organization of the club than to any other cause, and the fault will soon be corrected if the men keep up their present standard of conscientious work.

The fact that the men all use the Luscomb banjorines is of the greatest value in giving unity of tone, and will add much to the effectiveness of the club's work in its concerts. The club is fortunate in having an able and hard-working leader.

The make up of the club is: Banjos, E. P. Merwin, J. C. Howard, F. Snow, D. F. Calhane, E. Tuckerman and B. Wells. Guitars, D. B. Hempstead, S. L. Forsyth, W. S. Johnson and R. P. Hood.
