...further the oral expression of representative opinion on current college problems; to maintain an open Forum in the University." It deserves commendation for its increasing success. One note of warning, however, the CRIMSON feels called upon to sound in the midst of the recent prosperity.

...designing an organ careful consideration is necessary for the size, shape and physical conditions of the auditorium which it is to fill, and the particular place which it is to occupy. The tonal scale was fixed in accordance with these conditions, and the danger in such a large organ of making the tone oppressively heavy and overpowering successfully avoided. Yet the life, buoyancy and moving power of the mass of tone has been abundantly maintained. Those in charge of the work declare that the aim of furnishing the Chapel with an instrument worthy of its environment, broad in scope...
