...Modern Art in Manhattan put on exhibition the results of an interesting challenge. The challenge was made to architects last autumn and its terms were substantially these: let's see you design an intelligent theatre, if possible.

...explore what was, at the century's turn, an exciting new field of learning. Administrative officers of the University knew that President-elect Angell had long since given up pure scholarship to become faculty dean and acting president of the University of Chicago, chairman of the Na tional Research Council after the War, then President of Carnegie Corporation. Only those grown very old in the service of Yale and Education were aware that James Rowland Angell was the grandson of one college president, Brown's Alexis Caswell (1868-72), and the son of an even more celebrated journalist...
