...many brain children, all of sparkling intelligence, hatched by the minds of those who best understand the Law School and its needs, it would appear undisputedly accurate to forecast a fine beginning for the Landis regime in September. Yet it is to be hoped that Mr. Landis will not mar such a promising start by further intemperate public statements on current questions. If he curbs his vigorous tongue, the zealous reforming attitude displayed by him, combined with the innovations in the curriculum, presage a long period of prosperity for the Harvard Law School...
