For the first time this year, the doors of Appleton Chapel will be closed to all except members of the University when Dr. Harry Emerson Fosdick, noted New York divine, preaches in the chapel on Sunday morning.
This is a step which is taken by the University authorities only upon extraordinary occasions. In view of the fact that hundreds of students and members of the faculty have been turned away from the chapel when Dr. Fosdick has preached here in the past, the new ruling has been made by the board of preachers in an effort to make it possible for as many members of the University as possible to attend the Sunday service.
Dr. Fosdick is a member of the faculty of the Union Theological Seminary in New York. He was formerly pastor of the Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church of New York, but resigned because of conflict with the Presbyterian authorities over the Modernist doctrines which he advocated from his pulpit.
