Mr. Hopkins is a founder of .he SC School of Philosophy ind holder of an honorary master j ;f arts degree which was bestowed y the university last June. A reared business man of Pasadena. Mr.
Hopkins spends much of his time a philosophical research student ind amateur lecturer.
ANT THEORIES DISCUSSED "Transcendentalism may be used > describe a great variety of phil- i sophies.” says Mr. Hopkins. “In j more restricted sense it refers to |
:.he philosophy of Kant and Schell- : ng in Germany and to the group ,n New England who are usually referred to as transcendentalists.”
An outstanding work on this sub-lect under discussion in today's For-jun is the “Critique of Pure Rea-|on" by Kant.
“There is a great deal of ambi- ! uity in Kant’s philosophy,” points ut Mr. Hopkins. “A frank recogni-lon of the influence of Hume, anther great philisopher, will help us our understanding of Kant,” he dded.
OMPARE TWO PHILOSOPHERS
Hume realized the difficulty of roving the actual existence of the lodels we make of physical objects nd he refers to them not as physi-il objects but a.s impressions.

Life of Cellini To Be Broadcast Over KFAC Today
Amid an atmosphere of clashing steel, the story of the Italian art-tist, Benvenuto Cellini, will be broadcast this afternoon over station KFAC by the SC department of radio drama.
The production will feature Cellini’s creative life which began in 1520 and ended in 1580. Just Cellini considered his living more important than his art, so the radia play rates his creative work of secondary importance.
While the story is largely concerned with the love life of tha renaissance artist, one of the highlights of the play is the creation (ft his Perseus holding the head of Medusa. This marked the first time that a statue of pure bronze of such immense proportions was built so that it could support ite own weight.
Starring in the student production is Jack Silverstein, who plays the part of Benenuto Cellini. Eleanor Britton, the feminine lead, portrays Portia.
The rest of the cast include* Alice Hamner as Angelica; William Druit, the town crier; Joe Dickel, the announcer and the character part of the Duke of Florence; Allen Kronman, Felice; Nancy Thompson, the old hag; Natalie Guard, Liperata; Arthur Greenfield, th* governor; Betty Gough, Cecilia; and Margaret Heimann, Madona Valencia.
