Henceforth the Bulletin will print the news of Harvard and the more interesting news from other colleges with greater detail than heretofore. It is intended that later in the year the number of pages, now four, will be increased...
...leading article is written by Professor H. L. Warren on "Architectural Education at Harvard University."
