...TIME'S sport-writer said that three breaks were converted into three touchdowns (TIME, Nov. 18). But here's how Wisconsin's second score was made. Chicago, in the second quarter, punted over the goalline. Rus Rebholtz took the ball on the 20 yard line, slipped through the line, eluded Chicago tacklers until he was run out of bounds on Chicago's 29 yard line. Two line plays failed. Then this same Rebholtz threw a pass to Gautenbein who was over the goal line. Gautenbein was unmolested and caught it for a touchdown. Rebholtz kicked...

Kick Out, Kick In. Louder than words the Soviet raids said: "We mean business. China must yield to our demands respecting the Chinese Eastern Railway (TIME, July 22, et seq.). Under the treaty of 1924 we have the right to keep Russian officials on that line. You kicked them off last July. We have demanded ever since that they be reinstated. Our rights date back to Tsarist times, when Russian money built the Chinese Eastern Railway across Manchuria. We are ready to strike again. We have proved that you cannot resist us, even...

...Pointers in gold sweaters played all afternoon without a substitution against a Notre Dame team that has the finest record in the U. S. Time and again Army tacklers broke through to down shifty Moon Mullins and Sprinter Jack Elder. In the second quarter Elder, on his four-yard line, got to an Army pass. Instead of knocking it down and covering receivers, in the fashion proper for goal-line defenders, he caught it, raced 96 yards for the only touchdown of the game. Notre Dame 7, Army 0. Brainy, hard running, hard kicking Carideo's punts were sometimes...

Perhaps a better remedy would be an attempt to recast the form of the examinations in related fields in such a way that there would be a real correlation with the student's special line of study. A man concentrating in Government for example instead of attempting to become an authority on the whole field of Economics might be examined on some more restricted subject such as Public Finance or Governmental Regulation of Public Utilities in such a way that he would be able to focus his knowledge of Economics on something of real interest to his own line...
