...faculty has always punished the authors of "Bottle Night" disturbances. They occur almost annually and result in two or three hot-headed Freshmen being separated from the university. Talk of athletic or other extra-curriculum privileges of the class being taken away is not encouraged by the authorities, who insist that beyond a few individual penalties the subject is likely to be dropped. The faculty does not intend to punish the entire class for a disturbance created by only a small fraction of its membership...
...Bates tomorrow. That Zarakov will remain in the shortstop position seems to be a certainty now. Howard has returned to Cambridge, and is recuperating rapidly, but the chances of his seeing baseball action again this spring are very slim. With Tobin fairly securely established at the initial sack, the hot corner is the only place left in the infield to be definitely filled, and Slayton, Ullman and Dacey are definitely in the running...
...only skill and stamina, but which in itself constitutes a most useful accomplishment." ¶Summar Biakemore, head of the junior department of the Rye, N.

The sailor got the stinginess in the transaction and immediately they traded...
...magazines most generally excoriated were: Artists and Models, La Vie Parisienne, Hot Dog, Capt. Billy's Whiz Bang, Cis Weekly-booklets which, with a clutter of others, including Paris Nights, So This Is Paris, Ziffles, True Confessions, obtain a certain insecure circulation by pandering to the suppressed bawdiness of soiled minds. They marshal their pornography under a variety of shams: some affecting the disguise of wit, some the imposture of art. The wit is usually flaccid filth which lacks the forthright virtues of true ribaldry; the art similar to the crude but spirited masterpieces with which anonymous Raphaels adorn...
