...volunteered to "rally round and die for dear old Adams," as may perhaps be the case at some future time, but there is a growing feeling of genuine pride and interest in the House, not a feeling that will break down the social barriers that are bound to exist in any cross-section of a social institution, but one which is gradually creating a common bond of working fellowship. From the first the House has been marked for its informality, and this spirit still continues, not only in the relations between the Master, Tutors, and students but among the latter...
...rifles plus 200 machine guns entered Austria from Italy. Ostensibly they are being "repaired" at the Austrian factory where they were originally made at Hirtenberg. Actually they were bound for Hungarian troops. Fortnight ago Italian papers splashed out revelations of a secret joint note from France and Britain to Austria demanding that the 50,000 Hirtenberg guns be either destroyed or shipped back to Italy (TIME, Feb. 27).

...neutron, since Cambridge's Dr. James Chadwick discovered it last year (TIME, March 7, 1932), has been considered an electrically inert combination of proton and electron. Two pictures of the combination have developed: 1) the heavy proton and the light electron bound together much like a dumbbell; 2) the electron hugging the proton like an onion peel. Such combinations should knock protons in certain definite directions. With a camera he invented, Yale's Franz N. D. Kurie showed that the behavior of protons recoiling from neutrons did not follow the calculated patterns. Only deduction tenable was that...
Whether Dunster House is to be severely criticized for what has been called indifference to inter-House activities, but which may be more suitably interpreted as independence, is doubtful, for in the course of time the Houses are bound to tend towards autonomy, and their own distinctive characters. There is perhaps more cause for alarm in that Dunster House, in its internal activities, has not taken fuller advantage of the opportunities which life in the Houses was intended to provide...
