...potent Bruins to Cambridge at 8:30 o'clock this evening in an attempt to submerge for the first time a team schooled by Harvard's Hal Ulen. Although they have competed in but one meet this season the Rhode Islanders are known to be strong enough to extend the Crimson swimmers to the limit, if not prevail over them...
Sports commentators have ranked the Brown tankmen on a par with the Ulenmen and point to the Bruins' two speed kings, Matt Soltysiak and Bob schaper as convincing reasons why Harvard may not extend its consecutive victories to 29.

...Great Britain that unless China received aid in the form of money or supplies, he would be forced to line up still closer with Soviet Russia. Last week this warning produced results. In Britain a bill was on its way through Parliament which will enable the Government to extend sizable export credits to China. From the U. S. also came a $25,000,000 loan (much of which undoubtedly will be used to buy U. S. trucks and motor parts) granted by the New Deal's Export-Import Bank-interpreted as the U. S. answer to Japan...
