...Ronald Ross, the authority on tropical disease, told the British Science Guild in London: " You throw your geniuses in the dust heap." He pointed out that the man who discovered methods of inoculation against cholera (Waldemar M. W. Haffkine) and the man who discovered the cure for sleeping sickness (Sir David Bruce) are neither of them now employed by Great Britain. Also, Walter Reed, the American who discovered that yellow fever is carried by mosquitoes, died without knowing how his wife and children would be provided...
Again and again Mr. Monteux justifies the sometimes lavish praise which his admirers heap upon him; often he even exceeds their fondest hopes. This he did yesterday afternoon in the fifth Friday afternoon concert of the Symphony Orchestra...
From the great human Bible poem, questionably dramatic, though mightily poetic, Stuart Walker has fashioned a stageable dialogue, shaped it into ordered climaxes, and presented it in a visible form of the greatest beauty. A dual prologue sets forth the circum- stances. Job himself, on his ash-heap, discloses the tortures of his body and mind, and listens to the pronouncements of his miserable comforters.

Tech has a trio of fast 100-yard dash men in Heap, Hayes, and Howlett. Howlett, probably the fastest of these, ran second only to Gourdin last year and is considered to be as fast if not faster this year. To offset him the University will have Chase, Evans, Hovey, and Wansker. Chase is the University's best bet in the 220-yard dash, but M. I. T. with Poole, Howlett, and W. L. Smith might easily take two places, possibly winning the event. Chapin would have been a logical point winner in this event, but he can not take...
...done 5 feet 10 inches. Merrill is Tech's best man here with Greenough and Stanley having only bare possibilities of scoring. In the broad-jump too, Fitts is a likely point- winner but except for him this event presents a large field of mediocre ability. Dipple, Prescott, and Heap of Tech, and Thayer, Wansker, and Merrill of the University all seem to have about the same ability. Jenkins, however, could be counted on for Crimson points, but it is doubtful if he can get away from the baseball game Saturday for a long enough period to jump...
