Oxforo /Letter. As most of us Oxford Old Peterites had to take exams this term we were almost model students. Admittedly, our good intentions were encouraged by the lack of fine weather, for the rain drove us to our books. We were reconciled to the confines of the Examination Schools when we saw rain beating against the windows. Not that we ever took our eyes off the papers—of course ! Our activities were not wholly academic, however. Toulmin stroked the B.N.C. second boat with great success. Another bump and he would have gained his oar. From the spectators' point of view Eights Week was not all it should have been. As one newspaper-man said to another in the High, " It's a rotten summer lard having this winter." The gaiety of tea on the barges was therefore modified. It is not done to be too well prepared for rain during Oxford's festive week. The gay operas of Gilbert and Sullivan counteracted disappointments in the day.
