...present time motorcars kill 5,000-6,000 people per year, and measles 2,000-3,000. And in view of the fact that people tolerate fast motorcars, and readily preventable diseases, their great objection to being bombed from the air is an interesting psychological fact...
...20th Century traditional theology has taken a back-seat to political ideology, has not even done much back-seat driving.

He is a 6 foot 3 inch, 197 pound aggressive ball player, capable of breaking-up many of the Harvard off-tackle spinners. To the right of him is Spencer Manrodt, a short, stocky guard who thrives when the going is tough. Protecting the end is Prodgers, a pass receiver par excellence. At center is Tom Carey. Carey was seen last year in the Harvard Stadium as a back...
