With about four minutes left to play, and with the Crimson holding the ball on its own 10-yard line, Bernard Feins '33, threw three passes to Lupien, and P. D. de Give '34, netted 30 yards in two plays, a total of 88 yards, bringing the pigskin within two yards of the goal line.

The Commission's recommendation to cut the rates on canning tomatoes, tomato paste and cherries, sulphured or in brine, President Hoover rejected. Last week's flexing made the President's tariff score: rates cut, 11; rates upped, 6; rates unchanged, 14; total, 31. There...
