Description

One author discusses the Gymnasium Show and reproaches students for attending in only small numbers, particularly because the entry fee was meant to benefit the construction of new baths. Although President Scovel originally announced in morning chapel that work on the gymnasium baths had been suspended because the Athletic Association had failed to provide $200, the students raise enough money in pledges to compensate for the Gymnasium Show's lack of revenue. Five Wooster students attended the Twenty Fourth Annual Convention of the Ohio Y.M.C.A. Members of the university community are disappointed that Wooster was unsuccessful in the State Oratorical Contest, which was hosted at Wooster. The contest, which is described in detail in this paper, was won by Miss Kate. E. Morhart of the Ohio State University.
