In the Spring Term of l882, '83 not yet having satisfied her ambition to' out-do all predecessors, conceived within her fertile brain another zklea. fThis was the psy' chological period of '83's history,j i. e. after a long and bit- ter contest, verging upon dissolution, the program was completed, each part was prepared, all was enthusiasm, a rehearsal came, great was the excitement, long and loud were the ringing shouts, vive la '83.
