...host again last week. The guests were 986 delegates to the Twentieth World's Conference of the Y. M. C. A., held in North America for the first time since the founding of the Y. M. C.

...undergraduates, an approximation of Wisconsin's Haresfoot Club. Mask & Wig is a wealthy organization, having given a unit of dormitories to its University, and not every performer in the show gets elected to the club. Last week in Manhattan the organization concluded a five-week tour, presenting its 43rd production, East Lynne Gone West, or Virtue Triumphant, Even Unto Death. Squeezing the last few drops of humor from the well-worn procedure of burlesquing the melodramas of the '60s, East Lynne Gone West was for the most part a very solemn affair.

When Bernard would go out evenings to solicit insurance, big, broad-faced Rosa would wave a loving farewell to him from the window. One stifling summer night last year Bernard had gone out and Rosa, after a bath, was puttering about her kitchen in a loose gown. Through the open door strode a great, bullish...

...away the gun and a black silk left-hand glove (anti-finger print), disappeared in the swarm of Chicago's midtown traffic. A warm corpse lying in a bloody welter is not an unusual sight for Chicago. This was Chicago's eleventh murder in ten days, its 43rd thug-killing of the year. But the newsgatherers, camera men and police who soon congregated in the pedestrian tunnel were profoundly impressed, agitated, angry. For this corpse had not been a gangster, or a policeman, or a mere citizen. He was a Newspaper Reporter - Alfred ("Jake") Lingle, the loud...
