...mixture of gases is cooled under pressure, the freezing point will be raised as the pressure is increased until the mixture becomes a real compound, beyond which point pressure increase has no effect. On this basis, trying different proportions of argon from 1% to 60%, the chemists found six plateaus on their graphs of freezing points which indicated six unstable compounds of argon, containing, respectively, one, two, three, six, eight and 16 molecules of boron trfliuoride...
William B. Shalleck '39 is recovering as rapidly as can be expected after his fall in the ventilator shaft in Matthews, in which he suffered a compound fracture of his right arm, a dislocated shoulder, and a severe concussion which left him unconscious for five days, and delirious for two weeks more. He is under the care of the brain specialist, Dr. Munroe, at the Boston City Hospital, where he was taken on October 27, at the time of the accident...

The warriors took up their fighting arms, their wives, their pots and the village set out for the capital of the superior chief, leaving behind only the old, infirm and infantile...

Meanwhile Dictator Mussolini continued in cold blood to make efficient preparations last week for his Ethiopia-snatching war, thus giving other statesmen every opportunity to prove their humanitarianism by trying to stop him. II Duce went to the length of publicly demonstrating a compound produced by Italian chemists to be strewn by Italian airplanes on the soil of Ethiopia to sear and burn the proverbially bare feet of Emperor Power of Trinity's savage troops. At the demonstration a photographer trod on the stuff, was picked up by Italian soldiers and rushed to a watering trough...
