Senora de Ferrara Listed Among Lecture Patrons Senora de Ferrara, the wife of the Cuban Ambassador, is the latest sub- scriber to the lectures of Dr. Louis K. Anspacher. Mrs. Henry Winfield Watson, Mrs. Goodloe Falconer and Miss Vera Bloom will act as hostesses at the first of Dr. Anspacher’s four lectures on Shake- speare at the Willard at 11:45 o'clock Wednesday morning. These lectures are for the benefit of the George Wash- ington Memorial, and Miss Elsie Alex- ander will assist Miss Gertrude Lamont, Miss Bina Day Deneen, Miss Victoria Catalani and Miss Betty Thorpe, chair- man of the debutante committee of ushers, The first lecture on “Shakespeare as a Poet” is expected to be extremely in- teresting, as Dr. Anspacher will fully illustrate each of the talks by reading an excerpt so as to present the subject not only from the point of view of the library critics, but also from the van- tage ground of the long familiarity he as had, as a dramatist, with the tra- ditions and presentation of Shakespeare in the practical theater. In his first talk Dr. Anspacher will deal with the principle of wfioe'ry and poetry utter- ance, and will give the reasons why Bhakespeare is the greatest poet who ever lived quite apart from his great- ness as a dramatist. He will deal espe- clally with the sonnets and the per- sonal story of the life and love of the poet that they now clearly reveal through recent “historical discoveries, Following the lecture, Mrs. Henry F. Dimock, who is honorary chairman of the committee, will entertain at lunch- eon in compliment to Dr. Anspacher and the committee, which is headed by Mrs. George C. Thorpe.
