...London. Up and down the worn State Department steps, back and forth through its high drafty corridors has of late been seen, in leisurely movement, a tall robust man with a British faultlessness of attire. With difficulty newsmen identified him as Arthur Wilson Page, son of the late great Walter Hines Page, U. S. Ambassador to the Court of St. James's. Quickly they jumped to the conclusion- in print-that he was to be the new Assistant Secretary of State, vice Minister Johnson. Wrong though their conclusion was, it served to bring a White House statement: President Hoover...
Shoulders are sore and heads not quite clear this morning in many quarters of the Yard. A long trip in a cold rumble seat, a rather late evening somewhere-in-Boston, not quite enough blankets and no mattress at all do not form quite the proper prelude for a holiday. That nevertheless is the program of a large percentage of New Haven visitors when they come to Cambridge every odd fall...
...entire squad will be given a complete respite from hard work today when all 34 men and the entire coaching staff will motor to the Myopia Hunt Club for a day of rest. The squad will leave at 2 o'clock and will not return until late in the evening. A possible light workout may be in order if the weather is suitable.

Knox has scouted every Yale game since the Harvard...

Out of fuel, they alighted on the water and dragged their planes to shore. They did not know that they were only 40 miles from...
Oldtime journalists have almost stopped marvelling at the antics and contortions of the Associated Press, for a generation grave, factual and colorless under its late great Founder President Melville Elijah Stone; since 1925 jazzed and "rejuvenated" under General Manager Kent Cooper. But last week oldtimers got one more startle. An Associated Press despatch from Evanston, 111., reported that a blonde girl had sold to housewives some "lily bulbs" which proved, after a week in water, to be stones. Peculiarities of the report were its complete omission of names and its precious form. It was written in something approximating rhymed couplets...
