...believe this is the case. The Crimson fails to consider the essential reason for the existence of such establishments. If the Student Council poll was accurate, it is absurd to suppose that two-thirds of the undergraduate body are the indolent non-workers which you imply. What sends a student to a tutoring school in nine-tenths of the cases is not primarily a last-minute effort to get a course into his head; it is rather the desperate attempt of the average student to find some order in the chaos which a series of disorganized and pedestrian lectures leaves...
They shortly learned why. Secretary of Commerce Harry Hopkins had advised Mr. Noble to find an excuse to show himself to the Press. Reason: Mr. Noble was about to become not only big news but a big figure in Hopkins' appeasement of U. S. Business.

Seaman-scientists of the Research are not sure they will discover the reason for the annual changes. But they will determine the amount of change by comparing their readings with those taken by the Carnegie more than ten years...
...According to the Council's logic, there is no reason, other than financial, for retaining major sports teams if minor are scrapped. And why retain the major sports that are not self-supporting? The fact that tennis and squash are classed as minor is scarcely a condemnation--or is it? Interest in them is just as high as in any major sport...
