The Amherst clubs were the first and are, with the exception of Harvard, the only American college musical clubs to tour England, and their reception in English cities was ample reward for their ambitious undertaking. Advance information credits the clubs with an excellent program and & remarkably versatile personnel. The glee club, under the leadership of H. W. Rogers of Minneapolis, Min., has been materially aided by the ad- dition of several new and falented members. The numbers to be pre- sented include “Deep River” by Bur- |/} leigh, “Jolly Good Ale,” composed for the club by Charles 'W. Cobb, Am- | herst, '97, its director, and numerous || college songs, among them the fa- mous “Lord Jeffrey Amherst,” sald by | Owen Wister to be the best piece of | college music ever written. The club has also revived the old octet and has found that it is being en- thusiastically received by every au- djence. Mandolin Club To Play. The Mandolin Club is led by L. Li | Hall of New Rochelle, N. Y. and plays numbers of a semi-classical, | popular, and collegiate. Among its selections are the “K miri Love Song.'” “Marcheta,” by Scvhertzinger, >eter Gink,” adapted from the Pq iynt Suite, and the “College Medley.” The club is aug- mented by vialins, guitars, cello, ban- Jos, saxophones, cornet, clarinet, traps and piano.
