...injuries after a test flight crash last May; Tomaso Dal Molin, killed testing a plane in 1930; Lieut. Bonnet killed training for the races in 1929; Capt.

...Common Clay" now playing at the University theatre is taken from the Harvard prize play written by Cleaves Kinkead back in the happy days when Mr. Baker gave his famous English 47. Judging merely from the merits of the picture, there are several good reasons for not missing it, and one of these is the very excellent acting of Miss Constance Bennett. Playing a part once filled by Jane Cowl on the stage, Miss Bennett very ably carries off her characterization with all of the effectiveness that one associates with a stage presentation...
...next three years the Dramatic Club offered a series of one-act plays, all written by Harvard students or graduates. A dramatization of Thomas Hardy's "The Three Strangers" was done with mediocre results, since the plot did not lend itself well to stage production.

...professional performance at the Castle Square Theatre this evening-- "Between the Lines," by Mrs. Charlotte B. Chorpenning. And again we hear the criticism that the best plays that are produced in Professor Baker's courses are not written by undergraduates or graduates of the University. "Common Clay," by Cleves Kinkead, last year's successful prize play, was not written by a graduate, and the year before the piece was by a Radcliffe graduate. But this does not prove that good plays are not written by University men in English 47. Witness "Believe Me, Xantippe," by J. F. Ballard, a former...
