...Step Lively," eighty-seventh annual production of the Hasty Pudding, is, from the standpoint of its musical strength, probably as fine as anything this ancient organization has ever exhibited before rows of happy patronesses. E. E. Stowell '34 and R. B. Moore '35 have the distinction of being amateur composers who have produced a score that not only sounds like something but has real swing and force to it. Shrewdly the directors of the production have realized this fact and little else in the way of plot, dialogue, or special acts has been attempted. Apparently any such additions would simply...
Official announcement of a cabaret to follow the Boston performances of "Step Lively," the Hasty Pudding show, on Friday and Saturday evenings, was made last night at the Club, where last minute arrangements are now in progress. Copied after the cabarets which have been such a popular feature of the Pudding's performances in New York, this week's program will represent a complete innovation in Boston. It will be held in Repertory Hall following the performance upstairs...
...students have shown their devotion, if not to Bacchus, at least to an American version of this deity; the University should take the steps necessary to facilitate their worship. If the city of Cambridge relaxes its standards in the mild manner required, it is merely another argument for the stabling of the German goat in the dining halls; if not, permission should be given to the students to import freely. Some have expressed the fear that undue and public hilarity might result from the suggested step; this outcome is impossible in the sons of pre-prohibition Harvard men. The throats...
Representative Cullen led off a three-hour debate by reciting the threadbare arguments for beer as a revenue-raiser, "a vital step toward prosperity." Drys raged and roared impotently. Swinging to his feet Missouri's stocky Claiborne announced: "As a good drinking man I'm interested in this beer bill for drinking purposes. I not only want a good glass of beer but I want a good drink of whiskey and I hope the time will come when I can walk into a decent saloon and get both." Then he sat down, chewed his cigar impatiently...
...order to provide the students with a means, at least, of expressing their opinion, the CRIMSON has instituted today a beer poll. The aims of this step are two-fold: it will furnish a safety valve for the harried spirits now longingly eyeing the keg; and it will demonstrate to the University the true condition of its youthful wards. The allots are so arranged as to cover all the important points of the problem, and even bring to light some of its more obscure phases. The results of the poll will not, in all probability, crown Lowell House with foam...
