...should like through your columns to start a discussion with relation to a matter, which I am sure will be of interest to a very large number of students. As many college men know, though only imperfectly, the Oedipus Tyrannus of Sophoces was presented in Sanders Theatre in the spring of 1881.

No college has ever before - so far as is know - attempted anything like this production of "LeBourgeois Gentilhomme." The scale on which it is brought out and the fact that the caste includes nearly forty persons will give some idea of the magnitude of the affair...
