...tales that Hitler and Mussolini were playing a game of vanity in keeping each other waiting at their public appearances. These stories started when Der Führer left the Grand Hotel ten minutes ahead of schedule for a review of Fascist Militia in the square facing St. Mark's. With no military escort, the smudge-mustached Chancellor in his nondescript business suit was half way across the square before a young woman squealed "Hitler!" Ten minutes later II Duce marched in on schedule at his famed quick step. First warmly greeting Der Führer, he strode clear...
...nothing is Vassily "excellent" or "very good." He barely skinned through his oral arithmetic, written arithmetic, oral Russian, written Russian, history, biology and German. In these he was "fair." the lowest Bolshevik mark short of just passing. But Vassily is "good" at Russian literature, geography, physics, geometry and manual training.

From exactly 1,000 men whom Princeton graduated in those years the U. S. chose...
...with a 250 average, but the Wild Indians look more impressive. Up to a month ago they were anyone's picking but lately they've gone on the warpath and taken five scalps while losing four of their own headpieces. That puts them in fourth place with a 556 mark, just below the Crimson's .571. If their war dance keeps up they have a chance of ending up in a tie for the top of the League with Columbia and possibly Cornell...
