NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The Cambridge performance of the Hasty Pudding opera, will be given this and tomorrow evening, in the club house on Holyoke street. "The Sphinx, or Love at Random," is the title of the opera which L. S. Thompson '92, and D. Gray '92, have composed and written together, and the performances in New York and Boston, have proved very successful.
