...glaring weakness of undergraduate support tendered the Yale men on the eve of battle. Those who know the real story behind the debaters appearances tonight, will have trouble in back the emotion sure to be evoked by this latest "Laugh Clown" drama. The home fires are burning vigorously enough but with the unwholesome green flame of dissension...
...make the effort necessary to reach them. Only two or three times a year, to hear a particularly well known artist, does the reasonably enthusiastic music lover gain the lower frontier of Huntington avenue. Such infrequent exposure to one of the noblest, of the fine arts is not enough to make any appreciable difference in one's knowledge.

A 21st century substitute for Prometheus is Jeremy, rainmaker, who journeys to the rainmakers' convention. On the way the motorbus is stalled, and each passenger tells an inferior Canterbury tale (the title of the book is also from Chaucer...
