...harder. Nevertheless, the Crimson did compile a 16 and 3 record, Captain Bob Cleary did lead the nation in scoring and Bob Owen did prove himself to be one of the finest defensemen in the country. The trip to Minneapolis ended in two overwhelming defeats, but it is becoming obvious that Eastern hockey is just Little League action compared to the power-houses of the West. Next year does not look quite so bright, as the varsity will have to fill the large holes created by the graduation of Cleary Owen, Bob McVey, Lyle Guttu, and John Copeland...
Internationalism & Practicalism. Nowhere is the confident new sense of relaxation more obvious than in the academy. The violent personal attacks on scientists for unorthodox ideas have disappeared from the academy's monthly magazine, Vestnik. The cry of "cosmopolitanism" is no longer heard, and President Nesmeyanov himself has declared that "internationalism is a specific of science." On this all scientists would agree. Except for what is military and secret, a scientific advance for one nation is an advance for all. As for the party's former insistence on practical results, Nesmeyanov simply turned the tables on the West...
...most obvious of Thurber's symbols is the dog. Dogs as symbols are not new, but Thurber's canines are novel in every respect. They are large and friendly, with sad eyes, huge ears, and long tails.

His is not the grand or the obvious Paris of the boulevards or of politics that obsesses Humes: it is the Paris of cranks, little streets, odd churches, eccentric people. Bastide's ironic message seems to be: a disorder of the spirit, whether worldly, as in the case of the Russian, or religious, as in the case of the Swede, is equally damnable...
Much has been written about the Mormons since Joseph Smith founded the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in upstate New York a century and a third ago, but most of this writing has been marred by an all too obvious lack of detachment. The past several years, however, seem to have opened up a new and welcome era of objectivity...
