The college welcomes the announcement that the freshmen are making a move in the direction of a glee club. Eighty-eight has set at least one good example to her predecessors in initiating a custom of supporting a freshman glee club and we trust that eighty-nine will not be backward in helping to make the custom initiated, a custom established. Freshman glee clubs are sources of profit and pleasure to their classes and to the college; of profit because, as in the case of eighty-nine's glee club, they are able to assist in defraying the expenses of an exceedingly expensive year, and because also they bring out men who in case of need can fill places in the College Glee Club; and of pleasure because, as we have seen, they can give well-extended contributions to the programmes of the open air concerts in the yard, which of late have become such a pleasant feature of the warmer season of the college year. We hope that Wednesday, the day on which candidates for the eighty-nine glee club are to meet, will witness an interest that will ripen into energy, and an energy that will ripen into execution.
