Shaw-Henderson festival : presented by the Carolina Playmakers, honoring Dr. Archibald Henderson, Psi (North Carolina)

1933 · Sigma Nu Fraternity

The Carolina Playmakers presented a Shaw and Henderson festival in Chapel Hill in honor of Archibald Henderson, the university mathematician who became Bernard Shaw's biographer, and this piece reports on it. Detached from the May 1933 issue of Sigma Nu Delta and printed in Indianapolis by the fraternity, it concerns drama festivals in Chapel Hill and names both Henderson and Shaw.
