BY SUSAN LA ROSE A curriculum change in the sophomore and junior years recently was proposed to the faculty by members of the Special Study committee set up at Lawrence under a 2-year grant from the Carnegie corporation under the chairmanship of Howard W. Troyer. The report has been tentatively approved 'by the faculty. The plan, if adopted, would begin to go into effect next year and would involve a 3-year program to include about a third of the sophomore, junior and senior classes. The committee began analyzing the Lawrence program by adopting a “self-criticizing assumption, perfectionist though it may see,” recognizing at the same time that “to adopt this assumption mean® that we must necessarily study our failures more than our achievements.” Pride in achievements like the Freshman studies and senior tutorial programs was se aside. Assuming that the students fail to achieve as much as they might, the committee felt there were three reasons for their doing so: 1. Students are sometimes more interested in getting a job than in education for its own sake. 2. The student body lacks intellectual circles with which lo edu cate itself. 3. Sophomore and junior years are as a whole less effective academically than the freshman and senior years. --------------- --I A faculty aphorism was quot* Christmas Tree, Wreaths Adorn Union for Formal H.

Copies of the play are now on reserve in the library, according to Cloak.- and may be used by those desiring to acquaint them­selves with the production.

“Freshmen, as well as upper­classmen, are eligible for the cast." Cloak stated, “because the production falls in the second semester." March 11, 12 and 13 have been selected as the dates.

count of the life and times of an English literature scholar.

Dr. Hereward T. Price, visiting professor of English, began his informal report of his formal ed­ucation with the remark that, “Fortunately for me the entrance exams given by Oxford were easy. If they hadn’t been, I’d never have been admitted to a college. Oxford has a theory that just about anyone may be admit­ted. The difficult part of it is stay-

One of Dr. Price’sfriends did manage to speak to a certain girl by feigning bi­cycle trouble. This little tete- a-tete developed into nothing. This probably was all for the best considering that at th e time the friend was engaged to two girls.

He said, “Be-t fore anyone can appreciate Eng­lish Literature, he must have read a little Virgil, a little Horace and a lot of Ovid and he must know, French.”

Many people began editing Shakespeare volumes, some of which were very poor. He said that “amateurs" often did bet­ter work than the acclaimed scholars. A German, Gundolf, was one of these “amateurs.” His writings on Shakespeare

couldn’t be fired and he couldn’t be put on a committee .o do

! something about it.

Brilliant MindSeminars play an important

part in the curriculum of Oxford. Dr, Price's tutor, who was an eminent Greek scholar and who knew all there was to know about English literature, required him to do a paper a week during the three years he taught him.

He lists as the best exper­ience of his university days, *‘this constant association with a brilliant mind.” It was at these seminar meetings that all the students were expected to give “intelligent questions for any answers.”During his three years at Ox­

ford he never had a test until the end of the 3-year period. "At the start of one summer vacation, rav tutor said to me, ’Read your Shakespeare,” which I did. I was never quizzed on it, and was nev­er asked whether I had read it. It was assumed I had.”

Lectures at BunnAccording to Dr. Price, train­

ing in philology and aesthetics is all-important. Training in these subjects is essential for anyone who attempts to edit any works and especially Shakespeare’s.

He noted that a few modern editors make errors in interpre­tation because they fail to un­derstand grammar and construc­tion.

After he graduated from Ox­ford. Dr. Price lectured at Bunn University in Germany. While he worked there for his Ph. D. at Bunn, the student-teacher rela­tionships were different from any he had ever encountered. In class,

W-- ------

Last year a survey of leading colleges

throughout the country showed that

smokers in those colleges preferred

Luckies to any other cigarette.

This year another far more extensive

and comprehensive survey—supervised

by college professors and based on more

than 31,000 actual student interviews—

shows that Luckies lead again over all

other brands, regular or king size...am?

by a wide mar&in! The No. 1 reason:

Luckies taste better.

Smoking enjoyment is all a matter of

taste, and the fact of the matter is Luckies

taste better —first, because L.S./M.F.T.—

Lucky Strike means fine tobacco. And

second, Luckies are made better to taste

better. So, Be Happy—Go Lucky I
