...back on a gold basis shortly, gold shipments to the U. S. must be prevented; and the easiest way of doing this is to keep London interest rates higher than those in Manhattan. This, of course, tends to attract capital from the U. S. to the British center, and so support the exchange rate for sterling with U. S. dollars...
...Crimson line-up tonight will be the same as has started almost every other game of the season. McCurdy will surely see action at center, replacing Green, while Ootbout at guard is another man whom Coach Drohan will probably call upon before the final whistle. Slocum, whose remarkable shooting featured the Exeter game, is counted upon to be the leading scorer for the Crimson. Captain Baldwin's floor work should also be an important factor in deciding the outcome of the game...
...award in the Tacna-Arica dispute neglected to mention the most interesting aspect of the whole matter. They failed to point out the economic background of the struggle. Two thirds of a century ago the desert provinces which later bred war and whose present place as a storm center of controversy was emphasized by the award, were regarded as worthless, and the boundary lines of Chile, Peru, and Bolivia in that territory were but roughly defined.

Leekley may be shifted to jump against him with Jones used at forward, or Rauh may get the assignment...
...University will start tonight with the same line-up as that which has been used in recent games, with Leekley again likely to replace McElroy at center. Coach Wachter has brought the team to its high point of the season, and tonight's game, which will start at 8 o'clock, is expected to provide a stiff battle in preparation for Yale. HARVARD CONN.
