...Haven that year it was almost the same story, only the Crimson team trailed 14-0 in the fourth quarter. This time it was George Ford who ran wild in the closing minutes, and this time the point which would have tied the game was missed by Vernon Struck. The game was a disappointment, but it was only a temporary one in the forward march of Harvard football...
...present dance fad, the greatest in years-the Lambeth Walk. A number in a successful musicomedy, Me and My Girl, which opened last winter, the Lambeth Walk by last week was being played to a frazzle on the radio, whistled to death in the streets, performed every fourth dance in London hotels and clubs. The dance-an easy, arm-in-arm walk, mock-Cockney fashion, with simple turns, knee-slappings and, at the end, a shout of "Hey!" or "Oi!" -had reached the continent, had penetrated even to Scotland. And last week, Arthur Murray, Manhattan dance teacher, returned from Europe...
...streamlined as a sedan just off the assembly line, as capacious as a 1925 touring car, as comfortably upholstered as a buggy. It concerns itself with the lives of four musical smalltown sisters, the Lemps, three of whom are Lola, Priscilla and Rosemary Lane. Gale Page plays the fourth. What the Lemp girls want and what they get are two different things...
Within a 300-mile radius of the new bridge, a comfortable day's drive, live 35,000,000 people, a fourth of the U. S. population, a third of Canada's. To many of these the link meant an international short cut to a neighbor's dooryard; to others, weekends in the bass and muskellunge waters, easier access to a prime vacation land. But to a "whimsical few the route had still another charm. Nearer the U. S. than ever were Ontario's Dionne quintuplets...
Scarcely less acute was the wheat problem, for which Secretary Wallace is seeking a partial solution in a subsidy scheme under which he hopes to export 100,000,000 bu., about one-fourth the present U. S. surplus. To dump only 26,000,000 bu. abroad in 1934, the U. S. spent $6,500,000. However ingeniously conceived, a similar program now would not only add a neat expense item to AAA's bulging budget but would almost certainly bring a squawk from Secretary of State Hull, champion of reciprocal trade treaties. In addition, subsidized U. S. wheat would...
