...more political organization joins the multi-colored College family today when the Harvard Committee for Wallace meets for the first time this afternoon at 4:15 o'clock in the Noble Room of Phillips Brooks House...
Victor commendably began to provide Rubinstein performances of Chopin, but, so far, the emphasis has been on multi-volume sets of lesser works, (mazurkas and nocturnes), while the great ballades and etudes, for example, have been left in the cold. Columbia, meanwhile, surrendered most of what little Chopin it decided to record to the mercy of Mr. Kilenyi. The massacre of the etudes is typical of the result.

At this point, there was much clearing of throats and muttering of "that's that" by hoary Eli grads and straw-hatted under-grads alike...
