...CRIMSON deserves praise for recognizing the significance of the U.S. Court of Appeals decision on the proposed Con Edison Power Plant. However, the comments by Mr. Hugh M. Raup, who was "following the legal battle with interest," deserve some clarification. Throughout the legal battle to block the power plant, the lack of a strong position from Harvard University, which owns the property, has been noticeable.

...have been buried in a confused effort to duplicate the movie on the stage. Stills from the film of Major Barbara were projected onto the rear of the stage, with appropriate ooh's and aah's from the characters, to create the illusion of traveling through a large munitions plant. But no illusion was achieved, only five minutes of some persons looking at some pictures and pretending those pictures were real. Because Criss provided no adequate impression of the factory, the dialogue took place in the middle of nowhere. Again Shaw's play demanded a specific setting...
