Perhaps the argument was too locally applied. A correspondent of the Nation wishes to extend the conclusion "to cover the question what American men in general talk about." This writer complains that at gatherings of college men he is entertained only with "lectures by Walter This or Big Bill That" on football, and is told that that is the only interest college men have in common. A business man avers that among undergraduates "the range of subjects usually is from athletics to girls, and if one of them should happen to talk on American or English politics the other would...
...Plots and Playwrights," by George Edward Massey '15, has been selected for the second 47 Workshop production of the year and will be given in Agassiz House on December 14 and 15. This play, far different in character from the last bill, is a delightful satire on popular playwrights.

A bill of three one-act plays will be presented: "L'Intruse" of Maeterlinck, one of Brieux's comedies, "L'Ecole des Belles Meres," and a farce by Moineau, "Les Deux Sourds." The proceeds will go as they did last year to the French Red Cross. The production is considerably more difficult than anything attempted in recent years...
