Wants New Poetry Course. Teaching ooets how to fit trochees dactvls. hexameters and topndeet toeether into real vere by establish ing poetry schools is advocated by Mils Harriet jwoiiror. one oi viun gos leading exponents of art. Not the classic verse structure o poetry which was conceived to fit ancient languages, but human ryth mic verse adapted to American speech, is the kind of poetry school that Miss Monroe believes and hopes will become a reality. Present courses in our universities which pretend to teach poetry are all muddled up," she said. "Usual ly such courses are taught by tnose who have merely the technical un derstanding of poetry and wno are not at heart real poetry lovers. "My idea of developing poets would begin with a social gathering place for artists. A clubhouse in Chicago where artists could gather has been talked of and would be a great stimulus. Associating in such atmosphere with allied interests. school in poetry would be a national deveolpment, 1 think. Teacher Should Be Poet. "Of course, the way poetry would be taught would depend on the in structor. He ought to be able to write poetry himself, just as music teacher must be a musician. The form of study would depend, too, on the instructor. Rhythm, discarded by some of the more radical modern writers, is universal principle, Miss Monroe says, and music and poetry have al ways been among the most direct human manifestations of the univer sal rhythmetic impulse. The rigid- ty of classic verse-structure has proved a misfit in modern languages, Mist Monroe avers, especially - in English. The rigidity has been ' a hampering influence in prosody "a i t j-- , mcuievai rcmainaer strangely anar chronistic in this age of scientific re search. Picture Brings 160,000.
