Where is the solution? Walter Prichard Eaton is coached in the bed of experience in the theatres, and can thus bolster up his academic conscience with a defiant air. He is, moreover, in harmony with these impulses of a rejuvenated era of artistic expression (witness the fact that he even writes for the New Republic). Last but not least, he has been labelled "approved by" actors, playwrights, and again even by those everlastingly finical and eternal plagues of critics. Could we ask for a better truce?

Walter Prichard Eaton, it is said, may be summoned to Harvard to staunch the wound made by Yale in its drama department. The hurt university could do few wiser things than to employ Mr. Eaton to succeed Professor Baker as a tutor to the dramatists.

Producers have welcomed him to their entertainments, and they have put him out of them. Asked by a pupil where to take a play treating of the rougher...
Since the election of a successor to Professor Baker is a matter of more or less moment to every theatregoer, the Harvard overseers may excuse me for horning in. Mr. Eaton, I think, would be an ideal schoolmaster, and I have but one other suggestion to make. Why not an affiliation between Harvard and the Theatre Guild? Here is an institution, with an expert faculty, representing every branch of the dramatic art, including the audiences. It is an earnest organization, and it has at heart the improvement of the stage and its patrons. It might have time to join with...
