...cylinder ends. Dr. Bridges did not identify either bands or cylinders with the genes themselves, but by last week three known and one unknown gene had been traced to a set of four bands, and the others, Dr. Bridges predicted, would be "as easily located as the houses on Main Street...
Long on intellect is Bryn Mawr. Youngest and smallest of the sister colleges, it is the only one which grants the Ph.D. degree, is proud of a faculty capable of such advanced instruction. Twelve miles out on Philadelphia's socialite Main Line, Bryn Mawr's prim, cloister-like campus last week lay nearly deserted. This year's session of its famed Summer School for Women Workers in Industry ended last July, and the college was not to open until Oct. 1.

...West polo matches at Chicago last year were a Century of Progress triumph. They produced two weeks of noisy entertainment by Chicago socialites and the liveliest polo in 20 years.

Y. a brown belt of mud as 14 2-year-olds were saddled for the richest race in the world, the $100,000 Futurity. At the start, almost out of sight of the grandstand, Rosemont took the lead. Balladier, Chance Sun and Plat Eye caught Rosemont as the field crossed the main track. Then Joseph E. Widener's Chance Sun shot out ahead, opened a gap of four lengths between himself and Colonel Edward R. Bradley's Balladier...
