...Harvard CRIMSON," organ of undergraduate opinion, which led the battle for a memorial to the German dead, has also fought the proposal to give the war memorial the form of a chapel occupying much of the remaining open green space in the Harvard Yard.

...giant lies in the rich Oklahoma City field, now under strict proration. Last week Sinclair Consolidated Oil Corp. threatened to reopen this wound by seeking an injunction against proration in the field. Often Oilman Harry Ford Sinclair has been accused of leading the price-cutting. Last week his house-organ, the Sinclair Reflector, asked "Who Killed Cock Robin?" and answered that the big oil companies did it by bootlegging oil at cheap prices.
