Two Undergraduates To Publish Magazine Of Socratic Criticism

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Two undergraduates have announced publication of a 40-page magazine, Gadfly, which will appear tomorrow afternoon. The new magazine, scheduled to be printed monthly throughout the school year, is one of "criticism and controversy, a polemic against various attitudes at Harvard and Radcliffe," Sara Dakin '60, one of the editors, explained yesterday.

The first issue contains a "quite critical" section on Harvard today, according to Olivier Bernier '61, the other editor.

Also in the magazine will be an article on "Religion at Harvard," by Llewelyn E. Thomas '61, son of Dylan Thomas, a discussion of "Fat Professors"--Mentally Fat Ones--by Paul H. Riesman '60, and an analysis of Harvard apathy by Brian R. Featherstone.

Other contributions include Miss Dakin's "Pigs," a review of the Harvard lecture system, a criticism of Ezra Pound and Sherry Martinelly by Guy M. Davenport, Jr. '59, and a discussion by Morton H. Levine, teaching fellow in General Education, of experiences with students.
