Tillich Gives Final Lecture Here

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

University Professor Paul J. Tillich gave his last lecture at Harvard yesterday--a two-hour talk on the styles of man's self-interpetation in the visual arts--and received a standing ovation from a capacity-audience in Sanders Theatre.

The Protestant theologian, one of the great thinkers in the modern world, completed his eight-year stay at the University with the special lecture. Tillich taught Humanities 141d and Philosophy 193 this semester.

Tillich, an outspoken critic of Nazism, was completed to leave Germany after the rise of Hitler. He was professor of Philosophical Theology at the Union Theological Seminary until 1954.
