Week after week suave Mr. Hays has sought to whittle down these harsh terms, but the Commission, backed by Minister of Instruction Edouard Herriot, has remained obstinate. Finally last week Cinema Censor Hays let his anger mount and began to threaten. He announced that he had booked passage for the U. S., and that upon the day he sailed the U. S. film industry would suspend all business in the French market. The potency of this threat lay in the fact that France does not yet produce sufficient cinema dramas to supply even one-third of her own demand. Therefore...

Whether or not the drug counters of Harvard Square pharmacies have been besieged by flocks of Ibises and Presidents bawling for relief, we do not know, but that some purge of humors has been employed, is, at first glance, obvious.

...Samborski '31 and W. H. MacHale '31 received the call for duty on the mount. The former started the contest, striking out eight Groton sluggers during his five innings of action. Five members of the schoolboy nine fanned at the offerings of MacHale during the last four frames...
