...Iowa, the next in Michigan, the next in Ohio. Greatest third-party vote in recent years was that for the late great Robert Marion La Follette in 1924 when that Wisconsin Senator came within an ace of polling 5,000,000 ballots. Though Unionist Lemke really cannot hope to equal that record, he does, on the basis of straw polls, expect to outstrip every other third-party man in next week's election...
Coach Crisler falls to share the sanguine confidence of his players. His scouts have called Harvard 50 per cent stronger on the offensive and equal on the defensive to last year's Crimson eleven; he is fighting desperately with his charges to avoid a let-down after the grueling contests with Penn and Navy.

Smith. Both specialize in a moronic, capped-&-gowned Brain Truster...
After twelve years on the Baltimore Sun, which opposes both Roosevelt and Landon, Edmund Duffy is disposed to regard politics as a joke. This year he has drawn a wry-mouthed Franklin Roosevelt and a pompous, silk-hatted GOP with equal indifference, saved his enthusiasm for the cause of Peace...
...Smithsonian has a new sun-observing station on Mount St. Katherine in Egypt, where work will continue at least through 1937 on funds donated by John August Roebling, bridge-building scion. First analysis of the Egyptian records showed them equal in excellence to those of the Smithsonian's two older sun stations at Montezuma, Chile and Table Mountain, Calif...
