Embarking on a long, twelve-meet schedule, the Varsity swimming team is favored to open its 1933-34 season with a victory over Bowdoin tonight at 8.15 o'clock in the Indoor Athletic Building Pool. Despite the loss of Robert D. Fallon '33, and Benton S. Wood '33, the Crimson natators, bolstered by several of last year's Freshman stars, may look forward to a fairly successful season...
...gold to $34.01. To dampen persistent tales of a rift between the Treasury and the hard-money Federal Reserve Board, Governor Eugene Black, by all odds the funniest and funniest-looking man in the Administration, showed up at Warm Springs. While his chief was paddling about the tepid swimming pool, Governor Black stood nearby, sorrowfully rattled a copy of the Atlanta Constitution which headlined the recurrent story that he was about to resign. "It isn't so much that it's all wrong," he lamented. "But here [it] occurs in the paper on which I was a director...
Something of great import to all Cuba leaked out of President Roosevelt's Warm Springs swimming pool last week: able Ambassador Sumner Welles, known to be antipathetic to the Grau San Martin regime, was about to be withdrawn.

Its capacity is 225,000 gallons...
...leaving the pool, the water goes through a "haircatcher" which removes any lint from bathing suits or any similar material which has remained in the water. After this, it is heated to between 72 and 75 degrees. It then runs through two coagulant pots, one of soda ash and the other of alum, which prevent undue acidity. The main work of filtration is done by 27 tons of special graded Cape May, New Jersey, fine sand, through which the water seeps. Before entering the pool again, the water is impregnated with chlorine gas, which lends a greenish color and which...
