V IVID first-hand contact methods of education are illustrated by the International Student Conference, which opened Thursday here, Participants will never forget the lessons which they will learn at this conference-lessons regarding the futility of son- orous diplomacy. It will become quickly obvious to the most casual observer of the model conference that each nation, by means of subtle evasion and bombastic rhetoric, seeks to hookwink every other nation and to secure s many concessions for itself as possible. The complete blindness of nations to the principle that the good of the whole is the good of the individual will be graphically illus- trated. Yards of red tape will be strung out before the agonized eyes of spectators. The method of pro- cedure developed by the League of Nations will be carefully followed, and the weighty ponderousness of the whole exhibited. Meanwhile, there will be developments. Keen observers will realize why it is that a good deal of business seems to be transacted without anyone appearing to know exactly how it happened. The dominating influence of small committees over huge congresses, in other words, will become ob- viotis. All the good and the evil elements of a great international congress will be illustrated, if the model conference Ais faithfully presented.. The chaos of mass action, and the dictatorial influence of small detachments will be completely exposed. Spectators and participants will go away wonder- ing why it is that more international business is not transacted by the kitchen cabinet method. nomics, who will be dropped at the end of this semester. The facts of his dismissal may be best understood from his own statement: "Due to a widespread interest in the question of my status at Columbia I feel it desirable to give the facts of this situation. In December I was informed by Professor R. C. Tugwell, head of the Economics Department, that I would not be re- appointed for the coming year. This is my fifth year of teaching at Columbia, and my seventh year of University teaching. Like other instructors, my contract is on a yearly basis. Until a year ago last fall there was no question of my reappointment. During the summer of 1931 I became more active in the revolutionary move- mient and received considerable publicity in the newspapers in connection with these activities. That fall, (18 months ago) I was advised by Pro- fessor Tugwell to look for another job. He stated at that time that in case of lack of success in finding another position, I would not be dis- missed. I made definite attempts to find another position. In the Spring of 1932 my activities in connection with the Kentucky Student Delega- tion and particularly the Columbia strike resulted in extreme pressure being brought to bear for my removal. "Last December Professor Tugwell informed me that I would not be reappointed. At the same time, Professor Tugwell suggested that in view of the fact that I would have difficulty in getting a position at another university, he would attempt to secure a fellowship for me. Following this 'suggestion' Professor Tugwell recently offered' me an appointment by the university as 'Research Assistant,' at a salary $700 less than my present one. The condition attached to this offer was that the year be spent in the Soviet Union. "The facts in this situation raise clearly and definitely the issue of academic freedom. Under these circumstances the offer of a research as- sistantship by Columbia University can have no other intention than to obscure the issue." At the Case School of Applied Science, the Case National Student League group called a campus meeting to protest against a reduction in faculty personnel of 23 per cent and to demand lower tuition fees. Immediately afterwards, a special conference of the Board of Trustees decided to require Alexander Buchman, a leading member of the National Student League, to apologize pub- licly for" an article written more than two weeks before in which he disagreed with various views held by Dr. Wickenden, president of the school. Buchman courageously refused to do so and was immediately expelled. There can be no doubt that this dismissal is wholly due to his militant lead- ership of the fight against retrenchment. The most popular professor at Birmingham Southern University, Dr. Kenneth E. Barnhart, professor of Sociology, has been dropped and So- ciology thereby eliminated from the curriculum, ostensibly for reasons of economy. This "economy" involves saving Dr. Barnhart's salary, $2,76$8, and losing $5,040, the total. tuition payment for his courses. Dr. Barnhart has more students in his classes than any other professor. Members of the Board of Directors, the President, and other pro- fessors have accused him of -being a "Nigger Lover," "teaching Communism and Evolution," probing "too far" into the question of prostitution, the Negro housing question, and general social welfare. Dr. Brnhart is not a communist, and is a member of- the Methodist Church. However, he has made such statements as "one reason that the Negro (death) rate is higher in Birmingham than the White (death) rate is because many Negroes are killed by policemen for 'resisting ar- rest.' These things must not go by unnoticed by any liberal or believer in freedom.

His appreiation is re- printed by permission Anyone with a hair's breadth of brain rattling loose in his cranium knows that the plot of "Twelfth Night" does not make sense. For no sufficient reason a shipwrecked maiden puts on a man's attire and becomes man servant to a love-sick poseur. Serving as his male duenna, she pleads his suit to a hot-house poseuse who is in- dulging her vanity somewhat too ostentatiously in mourning the death of her brother. There is more, equally vain. When it has all been talked down the hatch, everyone impulsively changes and marries in unseemly haste. But even when the plot is much too muzzy for the modern idiom; we have the raciness and a gusto unparalleled in the very writing of such characters as Si'r Toby Belch. "My lady's a Cat- alan, we are politicians, Malvoli's a Peg-a-Ram- sey, and "Three merry men be we'" As words they have a good roast beef flavor. Spoken by a rotund toss-pot in the theatre, they give out a stout, comic sound quite apart from their vagrant allusions. Shakespeare's prose style abounds in the ex- travagant earthiness of men, like Sir Toby, who have a vast appetite for living. Unlike the prose style of their modern counterparts, for we still have characters with a vast appetite for living, it has rich variety and a lusty rhythm. Like the works of Fielding and Sterne, it is a source of healthy, masculine writing, brimming with the humour of good tap-room companions. But primarily it is the poetry that captures the imagination. In "Twelfth Night" some of it has the needle-point clarity of violin music. Scarcely has the curtain gone up before Orsino supplies all the dramatic exposition you need in the frag- rance of the opening lines: If music be the food of love, play on; Give me excess of it, that, surfeiting, The appetite may sicken and so die. That strain again! It had a dying fall; O, it came o'er my ear like the sweet sound That breathes upon a bank of violets, Stealing and giving odor! No tale of pious truths is this, then. But a fabulous comedy of youths drugged with romantic love in Illyria. They are deliciously in love with love until Shakespeare, having pieced out the eve- ning, brushes the magic spell away, and bids them love each other. While the spell is on "Twelfth Night" is a microcosm of savors and fancies. This brings us to Jane Cowl's enchanting ver- sion of "Twelfth Night" and her performance as the love-sick Viola, following hard on the heels of her superb "Romeo and Juliet." From everv point of view this new interpretation of "Twelfth Night" is a thing of delight-sweet in tone, light of touch and robustly funny in the roistering scenes. For a perfect Viola, Jane Cowl has just the right touch of mischief, coupled with her great beauty and her golden voice, surprisingly enough, adapts itself splendidly to the lively relish Shake- speare had when he wrote this holiday piece. Miss Cowl also has the glamour of poetic fantasy, the beauty of speech the lines require and a very evi- dent love of the part she has selected to play. Joyce Carey shares with Miss Cowl honors in her production. Miss Carey as Olivia is a pellucid characterization of this imaginative figure. I can- not recall any quite as lovely in previous produc- tions. And the low comedy of Walter Kingsford as Sir Toby is enormously funny, quite the most spontaneous Shakespearian clowning this town of New York has seen in recent memory. It is a thoroughly sunny interpretation, with Shakespeare given the chance to come into the ascendant. Under such gracious guiding stars we could completely recreate the antic fun of Shake- speare in America.
