Last Sunday's revival began promptly at 2:30, but Owen remained off-stage while a warm-up man kindled an audience which consisted mainly of old people. The dapper m.c. led several communal hymns, but most of the singing was done by an on-stage group of "Christian Youth." As a group the "Youth" averaged about forty years old--a lone teenager clasped his hands to his face and shook nervously during the first hymn. (During the second hymn he bolted into the wings.) There was an accordion number next, rendered by two girls in white. One of them...

...tombs are more important as the extreme result of the Yale credo of success, and as an exaggerated example of it. For the spooks' philosophy is that the world can best be run by themselves, the outstanding men of Yale. In brutal wrestling matches and communal criticism, they prepare each other for success in life. Bonesmen Henry Luce, Robert A. Taft, Archibald MacLeish, and McGeorge Bundy of the Government department have succeeded; those who don't succeed or don't try to succeed get a talking to from Bonesmen who converge from all parts of the globe...
