...Psychology and Psychology of Personality. Professor Allport's 32 is good but not enough to cover the topic of Personality. The same is true of Dr. White's course, 36, on Child Psychology. These are examples of the paucity of specific material. On the whole, the over-emphasis of psycho-physics makes this fact stand out all the more...
...more than 4,000 trained psychiatrists, concentrated in a few areas. Chief problem of the Army, in its effort to keep out wackies, is how to divide 4,000 by 6,253 draft boards.

Grey-haired, pink-tied, white-suited Messenger Ballard owned and drove, with Wife Edna and Son Donald, four high-priced, canary-yellow automobiles, one with a concert harp strung on behind, spreading through the U. S. the doctrine of I AMery...
