...seemed to flounder, to be a little uncertain of his way. This was particularly evident in the second act. The details are revealing, little turns of character are brought out with subtlety and grace, but it is in the larger strokes, the rhythms and counter-rhythms, the transitions from one scene to another, that one feels an ineptitude that, but for Philip Moclier's unobtrusive direction, and the high standard of the acting, would make the play much less effective than...
Incidentally, it is very surprising that 10 meals for $7.50 represents the lowest estimate of the Harvard dining room management. For--to add but one reason to the many already given--at one club at Harvard with an unsubsidized dining-room and an expected minimum of twenty persons at a meal, meals are being offered singly, at 11 for $6.00, and at 6 for $3.75 lunches and dinners alone, with second helpings, soup and salad, and all very good because of the free competition of other eating places...
...students. The permission for meals eaten by guests to count in the total of ten has not been granted, but since it is natural to expect that most of such guests will be members of other houses, there is no strong reason against such permission.

...figures quoted as prices of meals at one club are of equal interest. More information of this sort, both in regard to existing clubs, and to the mathematics on which the University prices are based, is necessary in clarifying the grounds on which the University justifies what appears to be an exorbitant charge...

Not more than five subjects may be taken simultaneously. Routine so-called practical work and ephemeral descriptive instruction are minimized. And students who enter upon one program may readily change to another, as their plans for the future develop...
