Savants Aid HTW 'Henry IV' Sales

Conspiracy and collusion were benignly viewed by Theatre Workshop ticket hawkers as accounting for the largest advance sale in the history of any College dramatic production.

Like kittens who swallowed the cream, they noted the impulsions on the average undergraduate to attend the opening night of Henry IV on December 2.

Shakespearean pundits such as Harry T. Levin '33, associate professor of English, and Theodore Spencer, Boylston Professor of Rhetoric and Oratory, lecturers in English 25a and English 23a respectively, have been briefing defenseless classes daily on how to enjoy the big show.

James B. Munn '12, professor of English, promises to quiz his English 1a class on the play, although he gave no hint of this in his Henry IV lecture yesterday.

The previous advance sale record was set by the Workshop's "Saint Joan" last spring.
