If there is anything that guides a vagabond, and this hypothesis may easily be challenged, it is his instinct. If he allowed his conscious self to act as rudder, he would no longer be a vagabond, and as a self-respecting member of the clan myself, I feel that that would be a catastrophe. All of which suggests one reason why I am going to Emerson J at 9 o'clock this morning to hear Dr. Prescott talk in Education B on instincts.

Second only to the Nordic legend in much of our self-consciousness comes our linguistic pride in the English tongue. It lies at the base of what is commonly called Anglo-Saxon supremacy. And discussion of it would appeal to me, and I shall be sure to go to Sever 8 at 10 to hear Dr. Magoun in English 75. His subject is "English as a World Language."

I am going back to the sixteenth century at 11 o'clock. Professor Whitney lectures then in Emerson J to History 7, the course on the Renaissance which he is at present giving with Professor Edgell. His subject for this morning will be the art of warfare in the sixteenth century, and to a confirmed pacifist should be about the most attractive presentation of war possible.

Mill Alexeivitch Balakirev is famous among other things for having organized the Free School of Music. It was this that gave the impetus and the direction to most of modern Russian composing, and it was through this that he exerted such a profound influence on men like Rimsky-Korsakov. His own compositions, however, although few, are as noteworthy as his influence. Professor Hill, assisted by Mr. Leonard, will give illustrations from them at noon today in the Music Building, as a part of Music 4d, Professor Hill's course on the Russian nationalists from Glinka to Stravinsky.
