...question was: "Resolved, That this House favors the adoption of mandatory neutrality for all armed conflict arising outside the Western Hemisphere." The affirmative team, composed of Dewey K. Ziegler and George Minkin, won one decision and lost one; the negative, consisting of Frank B, Jourdan and Max D. Gaebler, lost three...
Stahley has concentrated most of his power in the midfield positions, which require a great deal of running and contact work. He has worked out three combinations which he can substitute at will. Captain Tommy Campion, Pithy Willard, and Frank Downey are the starting trio here. Campion, a rugged and aggressive player, was injured in the Navy game and will not play again until Wednesday. Downey set up several goals with his accurate passing. As yet Willard, who is a Sophomore, has had difficulty in accommodating himself to the Varsity style of play. The second trio consists of Torrey Baker...
...thoughtful story, by Lieut. Commander Frank Wead (Ceiling Zero, China Clipper), conceives two sodden-nerved men, one a swaggering, hard-living and egotistic pilot (Clark Gable), the other his patient, understanding mechanic (Spencer Tracy).

Admitting that they were "babes in the woods," the new bosses of the Van Sweringen empire set put to simplify Allegheny's elaborate holding company substructure, have been lost in the woods ever...
Manhattan's Witney Museum, assiduous in keeping tabs on the dead as well as the living, last week performed another of its noted reanimations. The subject was U.S. Artist Frank Duveneck, who died a silvery grand old man in Cincinnati in 1919. When the average citizen thinks of first-rate U.S. painters of half a century ago he remembers John Singer sargent, but he is not likely to remember that Sargent once remarked: "After all's said, Frank Duveneck is the greatest talent of the brush of this generation...
