Undergraduate writing of fifty distinguished alumni appears in the recently-published "Harvard Advocate Authology."
Stories, poetry, and articles are presented by such writers as T. S. Eliot '10, E. E. Cummings '15, Wallace Stevens '01, Walter Edmonds '26, Conrad Aiken '11, Malcolm Cowley '19, James Gould Cozzens '26, and Norman Mailer '43.
This is the first Advocate authology since 1916; it includes material dating back to the first issue of the magazine in 1866. Donald A. Hall '51, an ex-president of the Advocate, edited the contents and has written an introducton describing the history of the Advocate and its place in the literary careers of the contributors.
Contributions that may be of particular interest to Harvard men are "Ivy Oration" by Robert Beuchley '13, "Harvard Today," by Arthur Schlesinger, Jr. '38, and a story by James Laughlin '56, now editor-publisher of New Directions, for which the Advocate was suppressed in 1935.
