Coming with a score of Cadillacs and a minimum of gestures the Republican standard bearer was met with a legally convictable crime against his name. The blame cannot fall upon the powerful local club that believes in prosperity. Rather does suspicion lie in other quarters. A student may, if he likes, believe in the "intentions" of Smith or the "Bolshevism" of Thomas, but such malefactions as this are hardly salve to the reputation of either aspirant...

...college, being made by the University Film Foundation, as described in the news columns of today's CRIMSON. While the interest of the average undergraduate will be confined to the football sequences and watching how well he films while skipping through traffic in Harvard Square, for Alumni who cannot keep in close personal touch with the college it will be of real importance.
