...Kennerley, book publisher, connoisseur, and president of the Anderson Galleries. The exact price of his purchase he refused to divulge; almost certainly it was more than $1,000,000. In exchange, Mr. Bishop acquired control of the Anderson Galleries. No real estate, no stock, not even a chipped picture frame changed hands. By buying the Anderson Galleries, Mr. Bishop had merely purchased access to its clientele, the opportunity to pay rent on an old four-story building, and a vast quantity of that dubious commodity described, in financial sheets and aeronautical despatches, as "goodwill...
...captured Hill 240 in the Argonne, compelled the surrender of 132 Germans and 37 machine guns. Having seen the world, he returned to his mountains, decided the mountaineers needed education, established the "York Foundation" to educate mountain children. Two years ago he started an industrial school in a single frame building. Ninety students came, crowded it, convinced Hero York he needed $30,000 to build two new brick buildings. Yachtsman Carl G.

There can be no question, furthermore, but that the proper frame of mind, which many seek by prolonged slumbers or revelry the night before, can be more quickly obtained in the cloistered quiet of the chapel. In the Ecclesiastes there is both an excuse for the students dissoulty and for his at tendance at the morning service before the hour...
...long dash by Clark followed by a true hard shot was the only scoring in the fifth chukker and the teams entered the sixth frame deadlocked, 5-5. The 1931 mallet-wielders gained the lead on a foul by Walker, who immediately turned the tables on them by a closeup shot, enabling the Artillery team to come out on the long end of the score...
