'25 Holds Forum On 'Mid-Century'

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Speakers tackled the problem of teaching undemocratic ideologies yesterday morning as the Class of 1925 conducted its Mid-Century Forum on "Harvard's Role in the Atomic Age."

First Marshal Gardner Cowles held that professors should be free to doubt, analyze, and wonder at every part of society. But Rep. John Davis Lodge of Connecticut said universities should endow students with enough strength to withstand "godless thinking" in the world.

Other speakers at the '25 symposium were John H. Finley, Jr., Eliot Professor of Greek Literature; Raymond M. Fuoss; Sterling Professor of Chemistry at Yale; Clifford P. More house, editor of the Living Church, Moderator was George P. Baker, Hill Professor of Transportation at the Business School.
