...Crimson, paced by the running, passing, and receiving of halfback Chet Boulris, had raced to a 16-0 lead early in the second half. But Cornell slowly battled back. The Big Red tallied for the first time in the third quarter after an interference penalty gave them the ball deep in Harvard territory. The visitors scored again midway in the fourth period, on a 26-yard pass from McKelvey to Taylor after Crimson quarterback Charlie Ravenel had fumbled. Still, Cornell had failed on both its extra point attempts, and the varsity's 16-12 margin seemed safe enough. However...

...Dewey's autobiographical sketch, I found out by fortunate coincidence that he was at the time visiting professor at Harvard. So early that afternoon I went to Lowell House and knocked on the door of his room. Happily, he was in. I asked John Dewey whether he would have half an hour for an interview any time in the next few days. He very generously answered, "now." So I put to him the following questions...

...service to the University community, the Club last spring offered a charter flight service on an informal non-profit basis. The pilot and his passengers divided costs, giving passenger an inexpensive trip, and the pilot more hours logged toward his commercial rating.

This year, charter flights will be dropped, except, perhaps, on an informal basis...

...outweigh the Crimson by as muc has 30 pounds a man, but Harvard will probably have an advantage in speed. Last Saturday in the Yardlings' 38-20 win over Tufts, for example, Hobie Armstrong at left half ran back two punts, both for touchdowns, and carried a pass 30 yards for a third tally. Chuck Taylor at right half also ran well; and Bill Hatch, playing second-string right half, scored a touchdown from the 20-yard line...

...other half of the issue contains a verse play, called A Wind of Light, by Jonathan Revere, a Dunster House senior. It describes two shallow, dissolute Italian youths who are transformed into passionate tragic characters in a play they are acting out on a hot summer afternoon. The dialogue, though rough in many places is done with some skill and the illusion of the character transformation is reasonably effective. The vast, pseudo-profound generalizations in the tragedy sequence are not always successful, and a number of Revere's phrases (the title, for instance) though pleasant sounding, and even suggestive, have...
