Although the title, "Romantic Activities at Heidelburg" chosen by Professor Burkhard for his lecture in German 26a this morning, might lead one, for a moment, to suspect that this course deals with aspects of the modern musical show, a little reflection will make it evident that this is not the case. Yet Professor Burkhard's lecture presents rare attraction to a student vagabond. Not only is it given by a deep and thorough student of romanticism, but in addition it deals with one of the most interesting phases of the movement which exercises most of its influence in Germany through the un versifies.

This lecture will be given in Seven 6 at 12 o'clock today.
