THE ATTITUDE AT HARVARD.
By THE EDITOR, The Harvard Crimson.
The college newspaper is primarily the product of a group
of students who enjoy collecting and editing news about the
college and in selling this product to anyone who cares to buy
it. This work is not done out of a desire to be of service to
the college; it constitutes merely one of a number of extra
curricular recreational activities.
As such It has no specified odii-le
gations 10 me university, ana m
Harvard the university exercises
no control over it other than to re
quire that there be order on the
premises and that all active editors
be In good acbolastio standing.
The Crimson has therefore long
been completely Independent. This
is taken for granted by the univer
sity officials, who view with pride
the freedom of speech accorded to
very one in Harvard. No such
incident as the expulsion of an
editor or official interference of
any kind has ever been necessary.
The Crimson has freely criticized
the actions and policies of univer

Child Research Work

Norman C. Meier, University of
Iowa psychologist, who will ad
dress the annual public meeting of
Psi Chi, national professional psy
chological fraternity, in Social Sci
ence auditorium Tuesday evening,
April 19, at S o'clock, will discuss
and illustrate the results of a
seven-year research of child devel
opment toward artistic talent.
The research which furnishes
the material for the address was
carried on in cooperation with the
Iowa Child Welfare Research sta-.
tion and its five pre-school groups,
and with the support of three re
search foundations, the Carnegie
Corporation, Spelman Fund and
Carnegie Foundation.
The first phase was the Investi
gation, of the nature of aesthetic
intelligence as it exists at the pre
school level, or how much children
from the ages, two to seven years,
are responsive to aesthetic prin
ciples and quality. For the study
of conditions determining emer
ence of aesthetic consciousness,
twenty gifted children of pre
school age and twenty who had
never shown any particular inter
est or proficiency in art perform
ance were selected from pre-school
enrollment by competent judges.
Study Art Work.
Another phase took up the
study of the art work of gifted
children. The children were
studied by an investigator while
drawing or painting, a stenograph
er being present to take down
every remark or comment made
by the child while doing the work.
The address will be illustrated by
slides, some colored and some
showing original material of the
children's art work.

Mahatma Gandhi might have shocked olde London but the
furor that the Gandhi twins created at the Storic Booke Ballo

Joe Alter, Nebraska law student, were the Avolves in sheep's
clothing that led a goat to the party. The slide that ushered
the costumed students into the Cornhusker ballroom and into
the realm of Alice in Wonderland O
was used as a shute by Nancy the
goat. It was reported that Nancy
tried to munch a bit of grass off
of one of the cannibal costumes.
Drew DeVriendt as Mr. Hyde,
the character from the movie "Dr.
