...Larry Fay found it easy to switch to the milk business without any great change in work ing hours. His mistake was in attempting to trans fer night club business methods (i.e. polite but firm extortion) to the new enterprise. Even big, established milk companies feared his power. The result was that, when Larry Fay last week received his 57th summons in 14 years, whereas his previous offenses had been minor, this time the charge against him was more serious: conspiracy in restraint of trade.

Two of these men, Devens and Potter, are upon Team A as a result of a radical mid-week shift by Coach Horween, while Gildea is in there because of Ticknor's absence, and Douglas has regained the post of which he was deprived because of an injury. Whether or not Douglas will stay in the game long is problematical...

Although it was impossible to secure any details from 3,842 Harvard men, facts concerning 18,000 of the graduates were received above their personal signatures. This is a 23 per cent higher numerical return that has ever before been received as a result of mailing prospectuses to the Alumni. The data received otherwise was gained in every possible war: friends of the men, relatives, clubs, and all conceivable sources were investigated in order to secure an accurate report...
