...devout may come in and make their nine devotions consecutively over a period of time. Catholics believe that these mass novenas are more potent than private ones. In Chicago last January a perpetual novena, the only one in the U. S. devoted to the Virgin Mary in her special aspect of "Our Sorrowful Mother," was begun at Our Lady of Sorrows Church. By last week, with 16,500 Catholics attending twelve novena services every Friday, this novena was one of the best attended in the U. S., so successful that other Catholic churches were making ready to imitate...
...approach to the literary aspect of the problem is conditioned by the fact that the foreign language departments offer numerous courses in the drama of each of the foreign countries. If, then, a language requirement in French and German were established for those wishing to concentrate in comparative drama, no courses in English would have to be added to the field of Comparative Literature, and concentrators in the drama would be enabled to read foreign plays in the original tongue. So, as a solution to the literary aspect of the problem, a two-year language requirement in both French...
Finally, at least two courses in playwrighting must be added to the Department of English if those men who are interested in the creative aspect of the drama are not to continue neglected by University Hall.

It has produced consistently creditable plays despite many great obstacles, and if its present rate of growth continues, the Club bids fair to revive Harvard's great dramatic tradition, and to restore the University to its former position as the foremost theatrical...
...program. In carrying on the program, undergraduate agencies are aiding in work of the greatest value, but they should proceed with caution. The name of Harvard is always included in the name of these societies, and however unofficial they may be in College life, they immediately assume an official aspect when they emerge from a loudspeaker. If undergraduates are willing to accept this responsibility when they go on the air and allow it to guide the tone of their broadcasts, they will be in a position to render a great public service, and will deserve the support of the University...
