This doesn't mean that Harlow is faced with unusually poor material for his first season. The squad won't be especially strong, but it should be at least up to average, and if some of the prospects contained in it develop as hoped, there will be the possibility of a fine unit...
...will depend on Harlow's ability to develop this young material, such men as George Ford, Leo Ecker, Tommy Bilodeau, Emile Dubiel, and Arthur Oakes. All of these men have shown something on Freshman or last year's Varsity teams, but none are really finished, Grade A, foll-time players as yet. Ford didn't reach his peak until the Yale game last season and Bilodeau has never quite shown the super-performance of which he seems to be capable...
Another report was that two radio engineers named Rodman and Dumont had helped Captain Clayton develop the ship-finder, using a thermocouple. Thermocouples operate on the physical principle that, if two small strips of dissimilar metals are made to form a closed circuit, minute changes in the temperature of the strips set up minute electrical currents, which may be amplified by vacuum tubes and measured. Astronomers use thermocouples to measure the temperatures of stars trillions of miles away...
Certainly our country can ill-afford to have foreign nations involved in a war, especially a conflict which with little provocation might develop into another international struggle with disrupting and demoralizing effects to our commerce. There are those who would have us believe the U. S. to be a self-sufficient nation.

Unfortunately, Authors Tim Whelan (who also directed the film) and Guy Bolton built up to it poorly through the earlier portions of the picture, which develop Grey's romance with the director of the Star's "Lovelorn Column" (Virginia Bruce). The Murder Man is consequently only a little better than the average popgun and city-room mystery play, distinguished mainly by the agreeable acting of its two seasoned principals...
