...performances of "The Patriarch" will be given on December 11. At the evening show, all former members of Professor Baker's "47' Workshop at Harvard are invited to be present. The last dedicatory night on December 13 will be for Yale undergraduates. If it becomes evident that more people wish to witness the play, a fifth and sixth performance will be scheduled.
