Government regulations have codified that sentiment by prohibiting the marketing of unborn cattle, sheep, swine, goats, horses.† There is no medical reason and no stringent religious injunction against such eating. Scarcity of slaughterhouse fetuses, Dr. Elijah Joseph Gordon, slight, swarthy, witty Professor of Medicine at Ohio State University, admitted last week, handicapped him in effecting the experimental cure of two anemia cases this year.** Ordinary liver has become remedy of choice for the anemias (TIME...

Sentiment, tradition, and college loyalty are factors against which even the most logical arguments can hardly hope to prevail. These intangible feelings alone are a guarantee of the continuance of the small college, and their disbanding may be considered a thing of the dim and distant future...
