...Amsterdam there arrived Miss Pattie Field, 24, of Denver-and her mother-and many trunks. Titled Amsterdamers, the local consular corps, a scurrying squad of pressmen, welcomed her, found her good to look upon, looked. Miss Field looked back, with both a twinkle and a glitter in her bold dark...

...Crimson six following its recent showing in holding the strong Toronto team to a low score, and in taking the measure of the Nassau skaters, has assumed the proportions of the "dark horse" in eastern college hockey. Tomorrow night's contest will do much to clarify the situation and will definitely ascertain the power of the University stick...

...circus day in a one-cylinder town. The other story went deeper, or bravely tried to. It was by rhapsodic George Gershwin, to whom jazz comes as readily as a new suit to a chamelon.

Of rotund Paul Whiteman's third sortie into the precincts of "respectable" music (this concert was in Carnegie Hall), people said...
