...excellent job in Ec. 133 (where I happen to have heard him) in tracing the pattern of economic development, and Mr. Bunde's failure to catch even a glimmering reflection of this pattern in the undergraduate course would indicate an aberration into adolescence on his part, quite in contrast with the incisive maturity of his judgments elsewhere. Professor Usher cuts loose from the conventional, integrated, year-by-year study of economic history, for the greater fission of economic processes as measured by the more exact tools of quantitative analysis. If Mr. Bunde insists on spoon-feeding, he is turning away...

Peter Zouck, who comes from the Gilman School In Maryland, where lacrosse is on a par with football, has distinguished himself by agile footwork and speedy ball-handling. Great things were expected from Doug Anderson, the captain of the 1941 Freshman combine and an all-New England...
However, even though Economics has been dominant for the last few years the tutoring staff is well balanced in other subjects and the interest groups are fairly all-inclusive. In contrast to the other Houses there is no regular tutors table, the tutors circulating through the dining room.
