- Boar's Head Well On Way: (en)
- Club Hears Noted Critic (en)
- Tuesday night in the Commons, Boar's Head, a new literary club formed among the university students interested in literature, listened to a talk given by Clayton Hamilton, dramatic critic on The Bookman. This was the third meeting of the new club and about forty students were present. It is the idea of Professor Erskine, of the English Department and other professors, that Boar's Head will develop into an active literary club. Membership will not be restricted, and any man in the University who is interested in writing or any form of literature may become a member by handing his name to L. Frank '12. At every meeting of the club prominent literary men in New York City will discuss questions of importance. Mr Hamilton last night, spoke on the poetry of Alfred Noyes interpolating many readings. The gathering was strictly informal, the members afterward conversing with the speaker and asking him questions. The name of the club, Boar's Head, will be recalled as the old-time inn when Falstaff made merry over his glass of ale. So, it is the desire of the professors that the club members may gather around a table at the meeting and comfort the inner man while at the same time entering into literary and social discussion.
