...CRIMSON regrets deeply to admit that error like a foul, cankerous growth crept unnoticed and uninvited into its editorial sanctum to contaminate, if not totally infect a comment labelled "Let Them See" in the issue of October 14. The exhortation to visual perception was hardly necessary. The H. A. A. is argus-eyed and the CRIMSON can claim no immunity from a righteous protest, To be brief, it has tilted with a windmill, bayed at the moon, shied at a clothes horse. In short, it is not true that undergraduates are included in the draw for football tickets...
...tradition, as that great gambling device, "the draw", is undertaken with not a little trepidation. More so since not among the first by quite a number of classes, ranks the lowly Senior of Harvard College. He will see the Dartmouth football game unless he foregoes fair company for the visual advantages of the cheering section, from a point of vantage notable mainly for its distance from the participants.

...course "Katja" has great odds to face. It is advertised as being a visual and auricular knock out in New York, London, Paris, Berlin and points both east and west. Its producers announce it to Boston as the continental equivalent of what is known in contemporary parlance as a wow. And now "Katja" turns out to be something much less than a wow. One can mention two possible causes for this decline and fall of what is evidently a good operetta in other places; one is the cast which, with the exception of an energetic young lad with a flare...
...With the visual factors of the production--always in a ritual of extreme importance--it is hard to find any others that come up to the level of the thirteenth century set. The lighting obviously, hampered by the practical difficulties the museum offered was aucortain, inaccurate, and showed little plan behind its questionable striving or "effects". Of the costumes only those on which little trouble had been taken--spice, in fact the best, borrowed from the recent production of the "Orange Comedy are very successful. The costumes of the more important characters ranged from the operatic ridiculousness of the High...
