The Congregational Historical Society Fourth Annual Meeting The fourth Annual Meeting was held in the Memorial Hall, in the Council Chamber of the United Temperance Council, on Wednesday, May 11, 1904, at 3 p.m., Rev. Dr. Brown in the chair. Between 30 and 40 members were present. Prayl!r was offered by Rev, C. H. DAVIES. The. minutes of last meeting, having been already published, were taken as read. The HONORARY SECRETARY read the report, of which the following is a summary :- · "During the year one issue of Tramactio11s has been published; also a reprint of Browne's Treatise of Rcfonna/io11 williout Taryi11g for A11ie; and the hitherto unpublished 1Vew Years Gu(ft, lately identified in the British Museum. This document had been carefully edited by Mr. Burrage, by whom it was discovered ; and the publication was somewhat costly owing to his care for minute accuracy. One of our members, Mr. Dixon of Northampton, has also discovered the register of Browne's burial, in the parish of St. Giles in that town, October 8, 1633. At our meeting at Bournemouth in October Mr. Brciwnen read a paper on .V 011co11for111ity i II Halllpshire, which has been published in the Transaclio11s. This paper is an excellent sample of what sh_otild ba! done for most or all of the counties, so that maps might be prepared of each, similar to that which has been done of Hamp shire. During the year we have lost one member by death, Rev. C. Knibbs of Torquay, and seven by resignation. Nineteen new members have been enrolled, makiag the present number 175. -

Ronald Davis Oral History Collection on the Performing Arts
Oral History Collection on the Performing Arts in America Southern Methodist University The Southern Methodist University Oral History Program was begun in 1972 and is part of the University’s DeGolyer Institute for American Studies. The goal is to gather primary source material for future writers and cultural historians on all branches of the performing arts- opera, ballet, the concert stage, theatre, films, radio, television, burlesque, vaudeville, popular music, jazz, the circus, and miscellaneous amateur and local productions. The Collection is particularly strong, however, in the areas of motion pictures and popular music and includes interviews with celebrated performers as well as a wide variety of behind-the-scenes personnel, several of whom are now deceased. Most interviews are biographical in nature although some are focused exclusively on a single topic of historical importance. The Program aims at balancing national developments with examples from local history. Interviews with members of the Dallas Little Theatre, therefore, serve to illustrate a nation-wide movement, while film exhibition across the country is exemplified by the Interstate Theater Circuit of Texas. The interviews have all been conducted by trained historians, who attempt to view artistic achievements against a broad social and cultural backdrop. Many of the persons interviewed, because of educational limitations or various extenuating circumstances, would never write down their experiences, and therefore valuable information on our nation’s cultural heritage would be lost if it were not for the S.M.U. Oral History Program. Interviewees are selected on the strength of (1) their contribution to the performing arts in America, (2) their unique position in a given art form, and (3) availability. -

It compares Miranda Priestly, fictional editor of Runway magazine, and Anna Wintour, real-life editor-in-chief of Vogue, and places these two characters in historical context by comparing them to fashion editors-in-chief featured in other movies dating from 1940- 1989. It also examines how these portrayals compare with media portraits of female journalists in general, and the possible effects of these images. -

THE BOX OFFICE CHECK-UP of 1935
1 to tell the world!* IN 1936 THE BOX OFFICE CHECK-UP of 1935 An annual produced by the combined editorial and statistical facilities of Motion Picture Herald and Motion Picture Daily devoted to the records and ratings of talent in motion pictures of the year. QUIGLEY PUBLISHING COMPANY THE PUBLIC'S MANDATE by MARTIN QUIGLEY 1 The Box Office Check-Up is intended to disclose guidance upon that single question which in the daily operations of the industry over- shadows all others; namely, the relative box office values of types and kinds of pictures and the personnel of production responsible for them. It is the form-sheet of the industry, depending upon past performances for future guidance. Judging what producers, types of pictures and personalities will do in the future must largely depend upon the record. The Box Office Check-Up is the record. Examination of the record this year and every year must inevitably dis- close much information of both arresting interest and also of genuine im- portance to the progress of the motion picture. It proves some conten- tions and disproves others. It is a source of enlightenment, the clarifying rays of which must be depended upon to light the road ahead. ^ Striking is the essential character of those pictures which month in and month out stand at the head of the list of Box Office Cham- pions. Since August, 1934, the following are among the subjects in this classification: "Treasure Island," "The Barretts of Wimpole Street," "Flirta- tion Walk," "David Copperfield," "Roberta," "Love Me Forever," "Curley
