...handkerchief stunt was big stuff in that period. Certain students in sections 31 and 33 got tickets marked "RED HANDKERCHIEF" before the Yale game. Rushing to Brine's, Leavitt and Peirce, the Coop, etc. these fellows bought crimson handkerchiefs to keep in their pockets until the half...
...important weaknesses in the Yale defensive set-up have consistently hampered the effectiveness of the team. Line-backing, especially against Dartmouth's hard-charging squad, has been inadequate at times. This defect was remedied to a certain extent last Saturday. The Bulldogs stopped Princeton's driving fullback, John Weber with amazing frequency, but Lovejoy's loss may prove crucial...

But Mr. Powell is no cowboy and the required high-heeled boots probably give him blisters. Agnes Moorehead, a star of great magnitude, has been given a silly bit that is beyond even her ability to salvage. She plays a supposedly sympathetic character, but the direction and the dialogue unfortunately...
