...Cordingley, Captain Jack Barr, and Henry Thompson won their individual matches, and Bob Graves finished all even with his opponents. Bill Calfee dropped his match, as did Watty Dickerman, but it was the series of best ball matches which spelled defeat for the Crimson. Only the Cordingley-Graves due was able to salvage even a half point...
That there are students capable of tutoring well may be seen from two things. First is the Undergraduate Faculty, where the tutoring must have at least enough to it to keep the tutees coming back, although many of them are hard pressed for time. Second is the even more significant fact that many students, unable to find legitimate tutoring jobs, have gone to work for the tutoring schools.

Despite announced appearances of such numbers as Delia ("Rose Dance") Carroll, who once lifted Adolf Hitler's brows several pegs, Grover Whalen last week insisted that there would be nothing...
...potential greatness, that it is neither just nor adequate to compress the exhibit within the rather arbitrary bounds of a brief review. However, one aspect of the collection which is surprisingly odd, yet quite pleasing is the fact that some of the better-known artists, Benson, Macknight, Homer, and even Sargent, lose the lustre of their fame when their paintings are compared with those of certain younger, more obscure...
