New Oread Magazine on Sale Wednesday; Best This Year--Ros
Two New Sections and Many Contributions Make This Good Number
"The Oread Magazine which will be on sale Wednesday is the best number that has been cut out this year, we believe because of the large numbers we produce and because of the special features that it contains," said Martina Roes, editor of the magazine this morning. "The price is 25 cents, a price which we think is small in comparison with the contents of the magazine."
The April number will be on sale all day Wednesday at the. Fraser check stand. All the members of the Quill Club, Rudhamathan, and Pen and Scroll will have the magazines for sale.
The magazine contains two two sections; campus chats, and current questions. The frontispiece is a cutting from a photograph of a wood carving by Anton Lang, the main actor in the passion play at the English national theatre is accompanied by a descriptive sketch by Emily Ericson, c'25
A feature story, "The Ways of the Gods," by Eleanor Hasson, c25, is one of the special articles of interest, according to Miss Ross. "A large number of manuscripts have [been submitted to the editor] of the magazine." For this reason and because of our new additions to the magazine, we feel that this number will be a success," said Miss Ross.

English Majors Hear Discussion of Modern English Poetic Drama
Prof. W. S. Johnson Explains Gradual Decline of This Form of Writing
"To many people the poetic drama seems as out of place as the doodo or the dinosauras," said Prof. W. S. Johnson in a talk on "The English Poetic Drama of the Twentieth Century," before majors and graduate students of the department of English yesterday afternoon. "The fact
"I shall attempt to explain the decline of the poetic drama after Elizabeth, the reason for the wide use of prose by the moderns, and make some conjecture as to the future of the poetic drama." Professor Johnson continued.
of the matter is, however, that the poetic drama is not of wide appeal, as it is appreciated only through a cultivated taste."
Professor Johnson traced the origin of the Greek and of the English poetic drama and accounted for the use of this form in the Elizabethan period. He attributed the audience from the actors as widely as possible. He attributed the initial use of prose to the success of Restoration prose comedies. Nineteenth century poetic drama he costumes primarily as he intended for the stage.
Professor Johnson spoke at length of the work of four of the chief poetic dramatists of this century. Steele, Massefield and Gordon Bottomley, Masfeild, and GordonBottomley, "Poetic drama needs an intelligent audience," Professor Johnson concluded. "The successful drama of this sort in the future must be based on the elemental passions and must be stimulated to allow the imagination free play."

Everybody said he was a different man that night
But this one night the Mrs. insisted, so he allowed that he might as well go the whole hog and he got himself a brand new outfit...spick and span from head to toe. Must have been the self-confidence those new clothes gave him, for he was the hit of the party.
If you could back him into a corner and make him 'fess up, he'd probably admit that he didn't like parties because he felt uncomfortable. A stag party was all right but one of these card parties with women...well, he was always 600 busy.
