Mather to Discuss Senator McCarthy

Kirtley F. Mather, professor of Geology, is expected to discuss "McCarthyism" at Dunster House in one of three House forums tonight.

Mather's talk, "Freedom vs. Security," will be held in the Dunster House Junior Common Room at 7:30 p.m.

Thornton Wilder, Charles Eliot Norton Professor, opens the Leverett series with a lecture on "The Problem of Obscurity in Modern Literature" at 8:15 p.m. in the dining hall.

Randall Thompson, professor of Music, will speak on "What's the Future of American Opera?" in the Kirkland Junior Common Room at 7:30 p.m. Robert Middleton and Allen Sapp, both instructors in music, will also speak at the Kirkland forum.
