...prevail over the desires of a considerable, intelligent population. Boston's prohibitors permit Minsky to run without let while they ban Strange Interlude and Within the Gates. They cavil at Rabelais and Joyce while smiling tolerantly (and probably reading themselves) Smokehouse Monthly. The Specialist perhaps had a bigger success in the Athens of America than anywhere else...
...first two years of the New Deal were, from an economic point of view, no smashing success. NRA, AAA, $4,000,000,000 a year in emergency expenditures, dollar devaluation, all had been tried but some 5,000,000 families still remained on relief.

The lines are used for offensive work entirely but it has been possible to replace them often enough to allow good playing without diminishing to quality.

Yale has its captain, John Snyder, guarding its portals and to his fine work in the McGill game is attributed the greater part of the Bulldog success. Princeton tries Stew Gregory as equal to Snyder but his performances so far this season seem somewhat inferior to Emerson...
