...December 8 and 10 and in Copley Hall, Boston, on December 11. The play, "Peter, Peter, Pumpkin Eater" by Miss Winifred Hawkridge, a special student at Radcliffe, makes a varied appeal both to the humor and sympathy of the audience. It deals with the tribulations of a New York journalist who "had a wife and couldn't keep her"--at least not to his satisfaction, amid the distractions and extravagances of city life. The minor characters of the comedy are fresh and well-drawn, particularly Kline, the restaurant keeper...

The lecture tomorrow will be open only to members of the University...

His chief interest, however, has been centered on social and industrial questions, he having worked for a time with the navvies on railway construction and during the building of the Manchester Ship Canal.
