...Phil Herrera lost, 3 to 4, to Jim Simmondts, Tech captain. Jack Graef (130) beat Mike Holmes, 3 to 1, and Len Miller was shut out by Tom Callahan, 3 to 0. Bill Miller (157) was also blanked, 7 to 0, by Join Hirschi...
Dali originally entitled the work Corpus hipercubus (Hypercubic Body), explains that his painting is based on "the harmonious division of a specific golden rectangle" and on the studies of the cube by the 16th century Spanish Architect Juan de Herrera. Actually, the painting has all the impact of a good window display. A luminous figure of a beardless Christ, face averted, floats before a dull gold cross, dramatically spotlighted against a dark sky. Floating with fine structural irrelevancy before the figure are four of Dali's small, mystic cubes, "the most perfect of geometric bodies." Dali has painted...
Artistically, the issue is hardly better. P. Herrera again contributes two good sketches, but L. D. Hill's work is disappointing. His illustration for Fletcher's title page poem is bold, but obvious, and his failure to master the tone technique in one cartoon is exceeded only by his inability in this case, to draw people. Hill's illustration for a satire on the founding of Yale are good, however; unfortunately they are dulled by the quality of the accompanying text. An unsigned cartoon commentary on Natural Sciences 3 is well-conceived, but ill-executed, and three of the other...
...starts well--Herrera's cover, although evidently designed for Dartmouth weekend distribution, is well drawn and attracting, and the insurance advertisement parody on the inside cover is probably the funniest contribution. From there, however, the issue trails into a succession of three attempts at movie satire. The attempts satirize only themselves. The other prose rises above this level but once. Fletcher's The Ghost is somewhat ill-conceived, but nonetheless well-executed, and his style precurses a Renaissance in 'Poon wit. Any such revival, however, is stifled by the inclusion of a piece titled As Maine Goes. Evidently the editors...
...cartoons, for the most part, are not funny. Some, however, do show a degree of sophistication and promise that has long been lacking. Herrera has contributed two fine small illustrations, one of a pet owner swearing at his parrot, the other of a novice fisherwoman. His others, though not as good, are as well-drawn. R. S. McIlwaine has contributed three cartoons, one of which is bad, and another which is worse. But on the third try, he comes up with probably the funniest cartoon in the issue, depicting the unrelentlessness of mechanical room-cleaning. The other cartoonist...
