...THUS TIME'S first baseball cover described the elite group of athletes from which it picked George Harold Sisler, at the start of a season when weakened eyes threatened his unprecedented career. Happily, First Baseman-Manager Sisler got things into focus: he hit .345, made TIME and the St. Louis Browns look good (though he was well below his best season: .420 in 1922).

More sophomores leave Harvard voluntarily than in any other year of their college career. This is in part attributable to the recognized "sophomore slump" which often consists of having to make a choice of how one is going to conduct one's college life. John H. Finley, Jr., Master of Eliot House, suggests that part of the reason for the great sophomore exodus may be the disillusionment sophomores initially feel for House life...
