Willey Talks
On Criticism
The best approach to literature
is a combination of a critical and
historical study of the work, Basil
Willey said in his lecture on "Lit-
erature and Society" which was
sponsored by the English Depart-,
ment.
Willey explained that the use
of the historical approach alone
in the study of literature tends toI
become an end in itself leading
to the forgetting the original work,
while the pure critical study of a
work of art may fall into absurdi-
"The critic," Willey stated,
"should be aware of the origin
and growth of the work as well as
the finished product." Thus, he
emphasized, students should makeI
critical judgements of the work
of art with the historical back-
ground in mind
Cancer Lecture

tional Cancer Institute will speak
on "Some Problems in the Chem-
istry of Cancer" at 8 p.n1. today in

to Prof. Algo D. Henderson of the
education school.
"The idea of the plan was to re-
form high school education by
speeding up requirements for a
bachelor's degree and to eliminate
duplication of courses in college,"
Prof. Henderson explained.
However, only a small number of
students could keep up with such
a plan, Dean Olson commented,
Consequently, Chicago had first to
start admitting high school grad-
uates for a three year course, he
explained, and now has adopted
the four-year plan.

Boulding Talks
On Economics
Prof. Kenneth E. Boulding of
the economics department yester-
day explained why there was only
one science-sociology-in his
talk on "The Contributions of Eco-
nomics to Other Sciences."
Speaking at the last of a series
of 11 Sociology Colloquia, Prof.
Boulding said that all sciences
were united because they all study
societies. Even the physical
sciences are concerned with cer-
tain kinds of societies, he said, an
example being the society of com-
ponent parts found in the atom.
Economics' advances in study-
ing the relation of individual to
aggregate behavior was one era of
its contribution to the other
sciences, according to Prof. Bould-
ing.
