...rate of anywhere from eight to 64 frames per second. What makes the Disney camera unique is its towering, 14-ft. framework. The camera peers vertically down from the top of this iron structure through several levels, set below it like the grooved shelves in a baker's pie-wagon. On the lower levels, various elements of back ground drawn in relative perspective may be superimposed, one over the other, imparting an illusion of depth in the finished print. Above these backgrounds the animation cels are grouped. In this process an average 750-foot Disney short takes two weeks...

Because the practical dramatic training it offers is extra-curricular in nature, the Club has met with little of the hostility accorded by University Hall to the "Workshop." 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...
