...Abramovitch is Anne Nichols' new production, with a cast of almost 100. It tells of a Russian Jew, whose ideal is uplift of humanity, whom poverty drives to amass a fortune in the U. S., who later loses both fortune and a beloved son, thereupon re-dedicates himself to his original, unmercenary ideal of uplifting humanity. Just how the elevation is to be accomplished is not divulged, but the End of Ends is when "all men love one another like brothers...
Both suggestions, however, reveal an attitude toward the function of the tutor that is in many significant points at variance with that which must be held its ideal.

President W. H. P. Faunce of Brown University has just made his annual report to the Brown Corporation and has announced Brown's purpose of embracing a similar sport policy. Games for all and the extension of curriculum ideals to athletics are the keynotes of the report. All Brown men, alumni and undergraduates alike, want a more substantial foundation for outdoor sports, the sports which help to educate, and only those. They believe that all education whether in the classroom or on the athletic field should be dominated by "one great ideal, subjected to the same control, held...
