...about Massachusetts have been personally interviewed," added Dr. Glueck, "and in general we are making one of the first piece of intense social audit. While it is well known that a business house cannot run for long without keeping books people seem to take for granted that society can continue its century-long existence without them. Considering the woeful inadequacy of American criminal records, the fact that we have followed up 90 percent of the men in question is extremely significant of the possibilities of a thorough system...
...There, before audiences composed chiefly of bibulous automobile makers, our show was a flop. They just couldn't see it. I like to watch the people who are watching my shows and it is interesting to notice their reactions. Here, in Boston, now, in contrast to Detroit, the audiences seem to understand the show, and though it doesn't call for a brilliant mind to follow out show, we presuppose a certain amount of sophistication, intelligence, and education on the part of the people who come to see and hear our revue...

It does not seem much more sane to find an underlying cause for twenty-six suicides, than to try to prepare vital statistics from twenty-six isolated deaths.

The other artists represented are Holbein, Fragonard, Delacroix, Watteau, Canaletto, and Duerer...
...both." That is almost a truism but it immediately raises the question what places, what positions of relative importance shall they occupy. Already this spring the Second Team intercollegiate baseball schedule has been discarded with the exception of a game with Yale for intramural competition. Such a move would seem to indicate that all second teams, essentially intercollegiate in their organization, would be abolished in favor of class teams. It might logically be extended to all Freshman teams. It might even be developed to a less extend in University intercollegiate teams. The early weeks of practice in almost every major...
