After the first play from scrimmage, when Ithacan Baker broke away to jaunt 74 yards to score on a perfect reverse through the weak side, the game gave evidence of being a rout. Harvard had to punt right away, and the Cornell attack functioned again. It had to be stopped twice, but twice it was stopped, and from there on, the Crimson showed they are a team to be reckoned with by all future opponents...
...Europe gone on toward a balance of power alignment, with Britain and France on one side and Germany and Italy on the other, the picture would have become dismally like that of Europe before the World War.

It was obvious that the Czechs & Slovaks may find it good business to get rid of 3,250,000 Sudeten...
...beam. Just as he dropped to the ground one of the workers playfully raised in his direction a thin steel rod, five feet long, three-eighths of an inch in diameter. The rod pierced the lower part of his back, slid up through his body, stopped at the left side of the chest wall. The boy was transfixed like a chicken on a spit, suffered neither shock nor collapse. One of the workers calmly grasped the rod, pulled it out, rushed the boy to Metropolitan Hospital, where doctors made an incision in the chest, fished out a small circle...
