The piece argues capitalism is exhausted and faces dictatorship, socialism, or chaos. Norman Thomas challenges collegiate audiences about future prospects for women and the failed promise of safe economic progress. It critiques student interest in abstract ideals over concrete policy.
The Forum Letter from Barnard denounces the Reed Harris expulsion at Columbia University and urges calmer, fact based discussion. It questions motives of Dr Butler and Dean Hawkes and argues for transparent reporting to Barnard graduates and alumni influence through press and student organs.
A veteran actress Blance Ring headlines a trivial comedy about marriage illegitimacy and family guff, with uneven dialogue and limited staying power.

Donald McGane, a young American violinist from Wilkes-Barre, presented an interesting and varied program at Town Hall on March 30.

The Saint-Saëns Violin Concerto in B minor impressed with its dramatic and lyrical balance and the collaboration with piano.
