...Still a glutton for parliamentary punishment, Senator Robinson told the Senate next afternoon: "I do not know whether my colleagues care whether I come back or not. But I am prepared to say now that if I have to continue to look at the Senator from Louisiana every day, if I have to hear him speak three or four times a day ... I think it would be a Godsend to me if in some way I got out of the Senate...
...offspring have won more than $1,800,000. As to their character, horsemen differ. Some of them are considered to inherit the cantankerous, gloomy disposition of their father while racing.

A good Roman Catholic, he often was closeted with New York's Patrick Cardinal Hayes. Superintendent O'Shea has publicly said: "I am no glutton for power." The two men most talked of to succeed him are not so minded. They are Deputy Superintendent Harold George Campbell, a suave, hard-working Republican, experienced in high schools, good friend of President George J.
