...believe the Minneapolis osteopath massaged a nerve center in the small of Mr. Murphy's back to correct his stooped condition.

If massage was used it was as an adjunct as it might be used by a member of any other school of practice.

The breasts and uterus are common sites of cancer, and many an investigator has suspected a sex hormone as a possible cause. Knowledge of growth, hormones and vitamins are becoming interlaced to the biochemist's delight. He is confident that from them...

He and Architect Raymond Hood had affably agreed last winter on a composition showing Christ's Sermon on the Mount to symbolize Man and Religion. The Rockefeller Center art committee, including Director Herbert E. Winlock of Manhattan's Metropolitan Museum of Art, suggested diffidently that...
...publication will print articles of criticism relating to the subject of education at Harvard and elsewhere, and to the relationship of college students to social and political problems. Last year the Critic had contributions from Herbert Hoover, Clarence Darrow, Billy Sunday, Ann Corio, Anton Cermak, Herbert Lehman, and other persons of intellectual eminence. The new Critic intends to have similar contributions this year in each issue...
