Juniors and Seniors Sign Up

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Today is the last day for Juniors and Seniors in the College, who intend to compete for the Boylston Prizes for Elocution, to enter their names with Dean Briggs, Boylston Professor of Rhetoric and Oratory, at University 10.

Two first prizes of $30 each and three second prizes of $20 each will be awarded at a public competition May 14. The competitors speak, not their own compositions, but selections from English, Greek, or Latin authors; the proportion in English is to be at least two out of three. The selections must be approved by the Boylston Professor.
