...suddenly seems almost upon us. An epidemic of German measles is sweeping the University and making the best of friends frightened to converse with each other at less than two yards range. It is also wreaking havoc in the various casts which are assembled for the amateur plays which enliven the end of term. The Provost of King's College's production of Aristophanes' "Frogs" seems to have got under way today without serious depletion, but the grand production of "Julius Caesar," which the Marlowe Society and the A.

To the quick glance of a gallerygoer the walls looked about the same, but Norway-born Artist Lie had done about as much as one person in one season could do to enliven the Academy. Prizewinners, announced fortnight ago (TIME, March 18), were familiar to the public before the show opened. Almost all of them were painted in the modern idiom.
