Graduation will this spring deprive Coach Stubbs of all his biggest men, with the exception of Saltonstall. Baldwin and Putnam are both experienced puck-carriers and the former, especially, knows the art of shooting the rubber to the right place when an empty enemy cage looms. Adding Martin to the list of exceptions, it can be said that no other members of the present squad give much promise of approaching the play of Wood, Cunningham, and McGregor. Unless unusual talent comes up from this year's Freshman sextet, this year's record may prove difficult to equal...

(where Governor Ruby Laffoon was to give him the rank of Colonel on the Governor's staff), and Dayton, Ohio. Since he started his series of exhibition bouts last August, he has attracted record crowds on most of his appearances, won all his fights except last week's, scored 26 knockouts and earned $200,000, of which he has spent half...
Last year B. F- Goodrich and Good-year Tire 6 Rubber took their inventory losses out of earnings, whereas in 1930 they were taken out of surplus. On a comparable basis last year B. F. Goodrich lost $8,815,000 against $10,309.000 lost in 1930. But Goodyear made $1,328,000 against...
