...joshed the Governor at this suggestion. Small though the refores tation issue was, however, it did serve to remind people that Mr. Smith had yet to endorse the Roosevelt candidacy. The best guess was that Mr. Smith was dissatisfied with Governor Roosevelt's Prohibition stand, even suspected the latter of playing both ends against the middle to win Wet and Dry favor. Mr. Smith has vowed that the next Democratic nominee must be as Wet as he is. While Governor Roosevelt was last week getting the backing of Senator Clarence C. Dill of Washington, Mayor Cermak of Chicago...

Books, as Francis Bacon might have remarked, are made for classical immortality, ephemeral existence culminating in tired waiting on the 98 cent stand in countless drug store emporiums, or immediate descent into oblivion and the macerating machine. Ernest Hemingway has escaped the latter fate, clearly; his readers of today are those who will decide whether he is to go down through the ages in the blurry print and sedate bindings of Everyman's edition. And this morning the Vagabond will also rise to present his luminous countenance before Dr. Carpenter in Sever 7, where the creater of tired young...

...that early date the faculty was composed of a mere 11 members, while the students numbered 204. Of this latter number, 66 were registered in the, at that time, newly erected medical school, so that the four undergraduate classes boasted the munificent total of 138, less than one-fifteenth of the corresponding group today. An overwhelming majority of this number hailed from three states, New Hampshire, Massachusetts and Vermont. The other New England states had scattered representation, and New York barely entered into the count...

...anyway in considering the following verdicts you may as well keep in mind that the infallibility of Huey is mixed with the human qualities of Forecast. The latter influence is probably no stronger than the bitters in a gin and bitters, but few will deny that bitters affect the taste if not the result. Therefore don't be surprised at small variations; the grand effect reflects the gin influence, unmistakably. Harvard 42 Virginia 0 Yale 13 Dartmouth 7 Holy Cross 7 Brown 14 Cornell 14 Columbia 6 N.
