Into Broadway's recent sex flurry (TIME, Feb. 21) stepped Publisher Horace B. Liveright, last week. "For Art's sake" and as a test case to determine the scope of police jurisdiction in censorship, Mr. Liveright promised soon to produce The Captive, a play dealing with one woman's abnormal fondness for another. The Captive voluntarily ceased showing, after it had been charged with being a "public nuisance...
...Harvard has never been willing to admit that university athletics have become national in scope, or democratic in ideals and management.

...from the pen of one of 'America's foremost educators, President A. Lawrence Lowell, of Harvard. President Lowell, in his annual report to the directors of Harvard University, considers the various high points of college and high school education unprejudicedly and in a manner which only one with a scope as is his could attempt. Another vast field for intellectual advancement which is very favorably considered by this eminent savant is that of self-education. In late years educators seem to have come to the conclusion both from experiment and experience that education acquired by one's own seeking, particularly...
