...kerosene lighting, he had stepped in and irreverently undersold Standard, thus filing free U. S. lamps with cheap Royal Dutch kerosene. Well, the old Standard was broken up now ? its pieces, in fact, were all around him: Herbert L. Pratt, Standard Oil of New York; W. T. Holliday, Standard Oil of Ohio; Edward G.

...undefeated Yale Freshman Fencing team defeated the 1929 foilsmen last night in the Hemenway Gymnasium by a 6 to 3 score. D. F. Edgar, a Crimson substitute, starred for Harvard by winning both of his two bouts. Captain Hyde and Holliday were the outstanding performers for the Eli first year men.
