...Hollywood, where-contrary to general belief-night clubs rarely flourish, famed Earl Carroll last week opened the most elaborate cabaret-theatre-restaurant on the West Coast, equipped with almost an acre of floor space, patent-leather ceiling, two concentric revolving stages...
...rebuilt as cargo ships. Now busy refitting six Condors to carry mahogany logs out of Yucatan's wilds, Babb hit on the idea of a unique Babb Special. It will have a wing span of 100 feet, twin motors and a cruising speed of 135 m.p.h. Its cargo space will be 35 feet long, 8½ feet wide, 9 feet deep. Through a hatch in the nose 4,000-lb. tractors or standard army dump trucks may be driven right aboard. Depending on the fuel requirements, the Babb Special's payload capacity is reckoned at from...
...member of the supreme council of India. (Resigning five years later, Macaulay left behind a new Indian penal code and educational system, had saved ?30,000.)

Thus ugly, harsh-voiced Thomas Macaulay seemed, to all but a handful of his contemporaries, to have amply fulfilled the promise of his precocious beginnings...
...University parking-lot on Mount Auburn Street. While the first would occasion the demolition of buildings and the second the defacement of the Lowell House entrance, the third would only require the utilization of a convenient outdoor parking-lot. Thus on the surface at least, this parking-space appears to be the most practical and most convenient site for the new infirmary. The lot is University property and fully large enough. If the infirmary was erected here, all the health facilities of the University would be unified; no longer would sick patients have a discouraging trek from 15 Holyoke Street...
...report of the Lowell House Symposium on evolution and for your admirable editorial on the subject. In chronicling my own brief remarks and ignoring the names and speeches of the actual participants, however, you failed to do justice to the undergraduate members whose show it was. If considerations of space required the cutting of the story, as I suppose, the gravy could have been spared better than the meat. The success of the symposium was owing entirely to Messrs. John D. Adams, Nathaniel Banfield, John Bonner, John Brainard, Irwin Clark, Vinton Dearing, and Eric Johnson. As you observed in your...
