...restriction, oilmen have made marked progress through state-by-state restriction agreements. There is no overproduction problem in Pennsylvania fields; Texas oilmen have on the whole cooperated enthusiastically with the restriction plan; encouraging progress has been made in the Mid-Continent (Oklahoma) fields. California, however, is the crucial point. California increased its production 40% in 1929 and now produces 30% of the U. S. output.

This renders the selection for each House more difficult, and at the same time offers a remarkable opportunity if successfully accomplished...
...Wood, Sophomore quarterback, hockey and baseball star. Davis Cup Team nominee, president of his class, and honor man in his studies. Out of the 25 passes he threw in the Michigan game only one was intercepted. Today he will direct the Crimson aerial attack in its crucial test against a well-informed and well-instructed Yale defense...

Putnam will make his debut as a running halfback and should prove a valuable triple threat with his running, passing, and kicking ability. The Dartmouth game revealed Devens' real power. Harper's defensive work back...
