...Town Topics: "America-or that part of it which has not as yet been romantically enlightened-will be vitally interested to learn of the apparent interest Colonel Charles Lindbergh and Eppes Hawes display in each other. The famous conqueror of the Atlantic loses his vaunted indifference toward the fair sex when in the presence of the effervescent Eppes. Even this change of attitude is front page stuff, you know...

For better or worse they have affixed to her the appositive name, "The It Girl," and the connotation to that title means to collegians, railway clerks, farm boys that Clara Bow is the personification of sex appeal. But Miss Bow also has histrionic ability. Some measure of praise is due her in this piece, in which she is the mercenary mink who works as a professional partner in a dancehall.

In The New Moon, Schwab and Mandel, from the cheers and collegiate stomping of Good News, have turned to New Orleans before the French Revolution...
...women declare, their medical degrees too facilely, particularly the highest, the Igakuhakushi. Any medical student who offers a smart thesis apparently can get the degree. Clinical experience is little required and some of those Igakuhakushi have been acting like scoundrels. They charge high fees; they write demoralizing articles on sex matters; they sign advertisements; they give testimonials. The women demand that the medical schools make their degree requirements more professional, that some organization function actively like the American Medical Association to reprove and reprimand unethical Japanese doctors...
