...King Leopold limousined around to the Foreign Office, negotiated for several hours, then dined at Buckingham Palace, resumed his dealings with British statesmen on the third day, at last returned briskly to Brussels, his capital. In official British circles it was intimated that informal agreements had been reached all along the line. Some of these will be implemented in treaty form, and for purposes of signing Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden may go to Brussels.

...spirit of Humor is not entirely dead in the Yard. One daring fellow last evening placed his pal's derby on the pavement and full of evil glee hid himself behind a tree. Soon a nice, bespectacled, becaned, bespatted gentleman came along, picked up the hat and returned to the prankster who showed the polite gratitude the occasion deserved.

There is a Ramone Ramon (pronounced Ramone Ramone, John C. Develin, '38), who is instrumental in a complete collegiate flop along the lines of the complete collegiate flops with which Hollywood periodically inflicts us. There is also a Llewellyn Flushingale, producer (Benjamin F. Dillingham, '39), who is as poetically illiterate, as pompously ignorant, and as, madly lavish, as movie producers are commonly known to be. But this is only a beginning...
