...Critics were unable to agree on Lulu's worth last week. Olin Downes of the New York Times pronounced it "involved trash," while Lawrence Gilman of the Herald Tribune went the whole hog in the other direction by saying: "The layman, if he can accustom himself to a doubtless indisposing idiom, will find in it a lacerating beauty, a piercing expressiveness often overwhelming which reveals Berg for what he is: a poet, a man of tormenting sensibility...
...chief pleasure at the University this week was in thinking of the good time we will doubtless have next Saturday at "Barbary Coast." For both pictures on the Square this time are pretty bad. We have plot G-63, served up with slight variations; plus comedy situation. Series X-12, in "Hands Across the Table," with Carole Lombard (who is getting old and looks it) and Fred Mac Murray, who is the one and only bright spot.

Whether the author of Gulliver's Travels would be equally pleased by the use Soviet cinemanufacturers have made of his masterpiece in other respects is more debatable...
...editorial is profuse in its approval of the general plans for the library, it is noticeable that the News has made some very unusual and hitherto unheard declarations. Few Princetonians know that their Alma Mater has long been hailed as the home of "professional football;" in fact the News doubtless occupies a position well in the forefront in bringing this fact to light. Princeton were further doubtless ignorant that the long-planned library was in danger of oblivion because of a co-existent desire for a new gymnasium in which to house its "big-time" athletes. The News...
