Submerged in the second paragraph of a small article on the front page of yesterday's News was the following item: "Harvard will play Princeton in a dual golf match on the Ray Tompkins Memorial Links tomorrow morning". The statement does not sound startling in itself, but it does show the utter futility of two great universities trying to keep at arms length from each other for an appreciable length of time. Harvard and Princeton have officially severed football relations for an indefinite period. Concerning the much-discussed break there is apparently much to be said on both sides...
...Dartmouth track team, 41 strong, arrives in town tonight with high hopes for victory in the Stadium tomorrow. Only once, in 1911, has Harvard bowed to the Indian track and field men, but this year the visitors seem unusually strong for a dual meet. Coach Farrell is not up to his usual optimism as he hears tales from Hanover of 6 foot high-jumpers, 49 second quarter-milers, and 45 foot shot-putters...

As anchor man of the Dartmouth mile relay team that won the national title at Philadelphia last month, he stepped the final quarter in 48 4-5 seconds...
...tored down from Milan to assist at the presentation to Pope Pius of a second new and sumptuous limousine (TIME, May 6). Senator Silvio Crespi, as President of the Club, raised the automobile's hood and briefly pointed out to His Holiness such mysterious gadgets as spark plugs, dual carburetors. Lastly came the scene which delighted cartoonists. Facing Pope Pius, all the 150 motorists simultaneously executed the Fascist salute, right arms upraised and ex tended rigidly at a 45° angle. While they stood thus. His Holiness extended his own right hand in the gesture of Apostolic benediction...
