Eliot House is presenting a symposium at 8:00 p.m. tonight in its dining hall which may inaugurate an elaborate series of similar discussions if enough interest is evidenced. The present plan calls for an Eliot House forum to be held once a term on a topic of current interest.
Tonight's symposium will deal in particular with the question, "Is the Novel Dying?" Harry T. Levine '33, professor of English, will lead off the discussion with a general survey of the subject, and divide the topic into three geographical areas. C. M. Bowra, Wardon of Wadham College, Oxford, will speak on the English novel.
