...could hope that an hour's meeting might give any specific or personal advice on an affair of such breadth. Plenty of sources are ready for the Freshman seeking counsel: the pamphlet which has been given him, his Freshman Advisor, the heads of the various departments all supply advice and information. If this morning he learns what concentration means, the purpose of the meeting is accomplished. In the last analysis it remains up to each student to gather together the facts of the subject and weigh them for himself. More than fostering a realization of this the meeting is unlikely...

...STRUGGLE: THE LIFE OF COMMANDER BYRD-Charles J. V. Murphy-Stokes ($2.50), most recent biography of the man. Commander Byrd tells practically nothing of his ancestors or his private life in SKYWARD-Putnam ($3.50). Skyward is his only published book. His Navigation of the Air is a thick pamphlet. He has in manuscript a book on philosophy...
