...Box Seats presents the struggle of a lady with a shady past to keep her daughter out 01 the shade. After a fine first act in which the lady in question, well played by Joan Storm, fights with the man who has been keeping her and takes a job in a traveling burlesque show, Author Edward Massey gets so many ideas that he has no more time for true writing. He turns for help to a theatrical cliché-the daughter (Patricia Barclay) falls in love with a man who has been her mother's lover. But even...
Coach F. G. Mitchell plans to give F. B. Cutts '28 a much-needed workout on the mound.

Barbee '28 to the box this afternoon. F.B. Cutts '28, a likely candidate to share the pitching duties against the Wolverines with Barbee, may see service in today's encounter...
...pudding of the theatre, containing not even a raison d'etre. Such was what some of the critics who attended its initial performance discovered it to be: not quite sure whether the play had been successful in its attempt to understand them, they wrote scornful words which the box-office at least could not fail to find intelligible. Others, undeceived by the play's pretenses, by its dreary smut, by its fairly frequent lapses into complete and trite absurdity, by long stretches in which author e. e. cummings had obviously fallen into the immature fallacy of trying...
