...been harder for the commuters' center to reach maturity than the Houses. Difficulties have faced its members in coming out for teams and participating in other undergraduate activities. Many of these men are engaged in scientific studies in the labobratories, which takes all day long. And since they cannot remain in College during the evening, many activities have been thereby shut off from them. Furthermore, most of these men have never lived away from home, and the effort that it takes for people to adjust themselves to a community life such as prevails in the Houses and such...
...graduation, for it took the two point-winners of the last contest. The 1936 November run over the hilly course at New Haven was won by Yale's Captain Wilbur T. Woodland. In third place came Hayden Channing '37, and Henry Marcy '37. With these two men gone, there remain a handful of hopefuls, but no winning performers. Captain for this year is John W. Erhard of Boston. Erhard ran very well against Yale last year, and showed deserved improvement by his third place in the mile race last spring at New Haven as a member of the track team...

Some children feel vaguely dissatisfied with Artist Van Loon's inky snarls and scratches. Between these critical...
Hull. In his gentle old voice Secretary of State Cordell Hull reiterated his best-known belief, that the world's woes will remain until tariff barriers are reduced. He reinforced it with up-to-date facts: "In 1936 our export trade with 14 countries, with which trade agreements were in effect all or part of that year, increased by 18.2% over 1935, while our trade with non-agreement countries in creased 9.2%."
