Unfazed, he returns with his thin volume of Keats to the flight deck in hopes of becoming skylark, but yet the resourceful owners of the Crimson Men's shop have designed tropical wear for every mood, at a pittance...
...preparation, Love has kept the same eight oarsmen which lost by a deck length to the mid-western brawn of Wisconsin last week. He's satisfied that the past week's intensive workouts have put the eight in the best trim possible. What are its chances of winning? Love is deceptively non-committal. "It'll be a tough race from the word go," he ventures. By this he implies it will be both a tough race for Navy to win and even tougher one for the varsity to lose...
Made in Australia for a mere $1,000,000, Long John Silver is a pretty crude imitation, as economy cruises are apt to be, of the de luxe $1,650,000 made-in-England original, Walt Disney's Treasure Island (TIME, July 24, 1950).

Where the currents move downward, the dust deck is lower, and above it lies a greater thickness of carbon dioxide. The CO2 reflects violet light better than the dust does, and this makes the down-current zones photograph brighter than the others. In light of longer wave length, the bands are invisible...
