Safety Rules to Limit T. S. Eliot's Audience

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Fire marshalls are limiting the audience that will hear T. S. Eliot '10 speak in Sanders Theatre this afternoon to 1,000 persons rather than the usual capacity 1,300. The surplus audience will be seated in Memorial Hall, which will be wired with loud speakers for the occasion.

Eliot, the first guest lecturer under the Theodore Spencer Memorial Fund, will speak on "Poetry and Drama" at 4:30 p.m. in a lecture that is open to the public.

The fund was set up in the spring of 1949 in memory of Theodore Spencer, former Boylston Professor of Rhetoric and Oratory, and sponsors two lectures a year on drama.

The lecture will be recorded on tape and filed in the Lamont Woodbury Poetry Room.
