...quarter-mile promises to be the best race of the afternoon, and upon it may hinge the outcome of the duel. Paulsen has done under 49 seconds, the new dual meet record established by Kane against Dartmouth last Saturday. The Crimson runner negotiated a wet track, in the rain to break the tape well ahead of the Green runner. Should he hit his best stride against the Blue, Harvard may well pick up two more points in the 440-yard dash, which would give the Crimson more latitude in the field events, where, according to the CRIMSON'S figures. Harvard...
Usually towards the end of the year there is a recession in tobacco production. April usually marks the resumption of heavy output. But not so this year. With cigaret production as a good indicator, the January record was about 4.4% higher than that of January, 1925; February 9.8% and March 21.7% above their respective months of 1925. So far this year 20,820,393,746 cigarets have been made and taxed by the internal revenue bureaus-12% more than in the first quarter of last year...
...would be a good man to write an Uprooted laid right in the U. S.-the uprooting of small-town folk and their transplanting, with various degrees of success, in big cities. He was born at Urbana, Ohio, 57 years ago, becoming a political correspondent on the old Chicago Record-Herald, and later an assistant to Illinois' Secretary of State at Springfield, what time (1893-97) he tutored in law. Then he went to Ohio, passed its bar requirements and began practicing in Toledo. That town welcomed his vigor and independence, soon (1905) electing him mayor over four other...
...track team led by Captain W. I. Tibbetts '26 established its claim to a position as one of the most dangerous dual meet squads in the country by cracking four of the meet records out of the six which fell during the afternoon and doubling the margin of victory which was run up last year. The record breaking performances were the more remarkable considering the cold rain which fell intermittently, slowing up the track and handicapping the men in the field events. The Dartmouth team outscored the University in only five of the 15 events...
...Miller '27 lived up to expectations and succeeded in lopping a fifth of a second from his own record in the 100 yard dash, when he led Glendenning to the tape by four feet in an even ten second performance. The Dartmouth flyer, who was expected to challenge Miller again in the furlong race pulled a tendon in the broad jump and was unable to compete. Miller, because of this, was dropped out of the 220 yard final. F. P. Kane '20 returned a double winner and a record smasher, in two beautiful races. He established a new quarter mile...
