Into the office of New York City's Mayor Fiorello ("Little Flower") LaGuardia last week marched indignant New York City florists. Their complaint: School principals, sympathizing with depression-pinched parents, had nipped in the bud an old U. S. custom: flowers at graduation. Cried Spokesman Anthony Gillis (to no avail): "Every year we look forward to graduation. Now flowers are forbidden. This goes to show there is something wrong somewhere...
...toward the Lowell cage, battering the puck about like an old shoe. The usual result of such a foray into enemy territory is a terrific 10-man collision, the nucleus of which is the man with the puck. There is no escaping this sort of defense. Then Lowell's Bud Doering takes the misshapen rubber disk that has been beaten to a pulp by the Winthrop bludgeons, and careens down the ice until by the time he crosses the blue line nothing is seen but a blur with skates on. At this point another ear-splitting collision occurs. The bodies...
Coach Jaakko Mikkola sent a trio of shot-putters to the 23rd annual Y. M. C. A. handicap meet and they scored a sweep in the event. Bud Towksbury and Art Mason received 8 foot 5 inch handicaps and finished first and second with heaves of 50 foot 7 inches and 49 foot, while Howie Mendel placed third with a 48 foot 81/2 inch toss including his 2 foot 1 inch handicap...
...thrills of the evening started with Bud Wilcox racing Art Bosworth to a draw in the backstroke leg of the medley. Then, after Cutler and Powers had garnered first and second in the furlong, Nod Goldwasser, Junior sprinter, annexed a fighting second-place in the 50.

He has graduated from the ranks of the House swimmers to the Varsity reserves, and finally has outdone himself in first-rate competition to return a dynamic 24.4 against Brown, beating Matt Soltysiak, Bruin iron-man, for second...
Schaper, sophomore sprinter, starred against Dartmouth last week, winning the 50 and 100 in 24 flat and 55.1 respectively, times which Lonnie and Harley Stowell, Crimson sprinters, have not equaled so far. Former intercollegiate record-holder Graham Cummin '38 was pressed to the limit last year by Bud Wilcox, Bruin backstroker. He is known to be good for just under 1:40 in the 150-yard event, so Art Bosworth will have to swim his best time ever in order to keep...
