Due to the large number c 2000 Hear Untermeyer At Assembly "The topic, 'How to Read Poetry and Love It,' is enough to empty a lecture hall in record time," Louis Untermeyer, poet, editor, an thologist and lecturer, told over 2000 students, faculty, and visitors at the third monthly assembly in the Field house last Friday. As a result of this observation, he ! changed his topic to "How to Hate, Poetry in Six Easy Lessons." Untermeycr listed the "Morse Code" symbols used for dividing poetry into feet and meter as les son number one. "Not one poet that I know would recognize a di actic pentameter, even if he were officially introduced to it," he said. Untermeyer said that he learned to love poetry through three methods; by leaving school, by reading poetry for himself, and by discovering the fact that everyone is essentially poetic. He read Robert Frost's "Ston ping by the Forest on a Snowy Evening" to illustrate thu points he made. Untermeyer named Frost as one of the three greatest poets America has produced. The other two, he said, were Walt Whitman and Emily Dickinson. He ended his lecture by reading one of his own poems, "Prayer." Untermeyer was introduced by Barbara McSwain, senior in the school of journalism from Colum bia. The lecture was delayed for 25 minutes when the public address system, borrowed from Drayton hall, failed to function. After the introduction, Untermeyer quipped, "Now that Drayton hall's 'Private' address system has decided to work, we should have no more Dif ficulty." After the assembly program, Untermeyer visited Doctor Bab cock's English 129 class and an swered questions concerning litera ture and writing for an hour. al Carolina Forensics which begin ensics; John D.
