Early in the first period, Ralph Himmelhoch, only slightly hampered by the loss of his glasses, snared a long pass from Pete Stearns for the first Crimson score. Yale retaliated with a long, slow march down the field ending in Captain Leo Bearman's two yard surge for the first Eli tally...

...first of these scenes are quite funny--especially in Lisbon just before the earthquake where junkmen, winesellers, and Arab conjurers litter the stage. A bear frolics--chased by his bearman--and the wild infant Casmira screams, "The earth will quake and the ground will shake," to which the Very, Very Old Inquisitor grunts toward the Very Old Inquisitor, "The danger has passed." Just then the stage begins to rumble. As the play wears on, however, these scenes become repetitions and progressively less funny. Toward the end, Candide wearily remarks, "You cannot live by bed alone...

Capitalism+Communism=Peace? It was not that everyone suddenly realized at Geneva last week that Litvinov is a Briand.

Up jumped the bearman, growling that Russia was ready to sign a pact of economic non-aggression now, and that now was the time to sign it. He moved for action. Up jumped Turkish Foreign Minister Twefik Rushdi Bey and seconded the motion. The bearman, turning upon Foreign Minister Julius Curtius of Germany, wanted to know...

That way (for an executive) madness lies. Tchitcherin did not go mad but is a weak, sick man today. The bearman learned from Tchitcherin, does not sharpen his own pencils. Tchitcherin would not use an automobile or permit his suits to be pressed, aristocrat that he was. Max, no aristocrat, can and does dress neatly without fear of Soviet gossip.

He must put on long black tails, she a filmy evening dress, and they must dine off gold plate at the Foreign Office...
