...remembered the claws of famed Bear Jesse Livermore and how he might be running through the list, searching for weak spots to tear at. But last week Bear Livermore publicly scoffed the idea that "the little trading" he does was responsible for the break. Another ogre has been the report of a new bear in Boston who "sells the board" in lots of from 50,000 to 100,000 shares. To conservative Boston bankers the new bear is not familiar. To traders and speculators he is known as William H. ("Bill") Danforth, believed to be the biggest speculator in Boston...
...important pathologists in the U. S. have been his pupils as most of the important teachers of other branches of medicine have been theirs. Well nigh impossible it is to review the many accomplishments of Dr. Welch, to echo the gusto with which he still teaches. Suffice to report that in his doctorate cap and gown he resembles King Henry VIII in jolly mood, that he organized Johns Hopkins School of Hygiene and Public Health (1918), and now its Department of the History of Medicine and its Medical Library.

...going away. Venus (United Artists ). No poet's goddess of pearl rising from the dark blue of an Aegean wave is Constance Talmadge, but a distracted flippant Venus left over from a past, an extravagantly rococo period of the cinema.

Known to few but the most alert tourists is peaceful, rose brick, medieval Albi, high-pitched above the river Tarn in southern France. News agencies turned toward Albi last week. Paris reporters trod its cobbled streets to attend and report the trial of Albi's famed "acid bandits": one Gleizes, a horse dealer, and one Aubes, a shopkeeper, accused of holding up the automobile of wealthy Mme. Holland, Albi businesswoman. Flinging vitriol in her face to blind her, they robbed her, left her in agony by the roadside. Into Albi's courtroom walked Mme. Rolland last week...
