...either case it is not sonorous enough to be self-justifying. Like most undergraduate writers of sonnets, and many older writers, Mr. Allinson is still more or less at the mercy of his form, as the words "all the world is fay" too plainly reveal: unsatisfactory workmanship clogs much of whatever poetic thought the sonnet contains. Mr. Code's sonnet is specific and lively; but it contains a nine-syllabled verse, and an Alexandrine. The latter can scarcely be intentional, since it is not the final verse. The sonnet form is so exacting that it is seriously damaged by stray...
...acceptable or not, shows competence and vigor. Mr. Fisher's "Lanky" is an unusually good story, exhibiting in a small space some skill in plot, character, setting and surprise. Mr. Scholle's "Fair at Lausanne," which in its paragraphing recalls the Boston American, is alive with good detail.

He lives in the Bronx, or Kensington, or Evansville--one cannot tell; he has been to school in England or America, and to Harvard...
