Never was a song more cruelly abused. Yet many realized that it was a rare, good tune in its smooth, nostalgic style. And it served to turn attention to quiet Ray Noble, no ordinary, illiterate, catchpenny songwriter but the well-mannered son of a well-to-do London neurologist and a nephew of T. Tertius Noble, the venerated organist of St. Thomas' Episcopal Church in Manhattan. Organist Noble has never been known to hum "Goodnight, Sweetheart." Nor has he ever met his nephew, famed now for having turned out some of the best dance records in England. But only...
Died. Dr. Magnus Hirschfeld, 67, famed Jewish neurologist, founder of the Institute for Sexual Science in Berlin, Nazi exile since 1933; in Nice. Unkempt and walrus-mustached, he was called "the Einstein of Sex," had heard the confidences of 30,000 sexually maladjusted people.

What interested him most among the year's naval novelties were Japan's new 8,500-ton cruisers of the Mo garni class. Looking over the specifications-15 6.1-inch guns, length of 625 feet, speed of 33 knots-he decided that it was almost impossible for that speed...
Educator John Dewey stared, smiled and applauded. Neurologist Stewart Paton stared, smiled and applauded. Geneticist Charles Benedict Davenport stared, smiled and applauded. Likewise did four dozen other specially invited guests at the performances of a 19-month old boy known as Johnny. They watched the youngster critically as he climbed up a steep plank to get a banana, as he dropped down from a 5-ft. perch (see cut, p. 18), as he got around on roller skates, as he picked out familiar objects from a pile of hells, pencils, spoons and other miscellany-all the while gibbling &; gabbling with...
