Behind the plate Colwell need bow to none in the league. His return to the lineup after an absence of two weeks has doubtlessly played a big part in the rejuvenation of the Crimson nine in the recent victories over Brown and Northeastern. In addition, Dick Grondahl, who has recovered from a cold, which kept him from playing for over a week, showed in the last two games that he will be a great asset to a weak hitting infield. At present Grondahl is at second base in place of Art Johns who is bothered by a spiked heel...
Nebraska's legislators voted overwhelmingly last week against a return to the two-chamber system. Most of them are conservative, and no supporters of George Norris. They resolved against President Roosevelt's Supreme Court Plan, rejected the Child Labor Amendment by 35-to-7. Outside of an unemployment compensation bill, they showed small concern for Labor and the masses-small political potatoes in agricultural Nebraska.

On the return trip he cracked up in Newfoundland, got embroiled in a tawdry, name-calling squabble with Richman, to whom he no longer speaks (TIME, Sept. 28). Back on his regular run for Eastern Air Lines, Dick Merrill next made news by wrapping his ship around a mountain, miraculously without injury...
Since last December when the U. S. Government inaugurated its policy of "sterilizing" gold purchases, the Treasury has bought and put in cold storage more than $600,000,000 worth of yellow metal. The Treasury not only receives no return on this huge deadweight investment; it has to borrow the money to carry it. What has been happening, in effect, is that the U. S. has been buying most of the world's output of newly-mined gold. And this fact is the nub of logic in recurring reports about the U. S. dropping its gold buying price. Having...
