...hopes nonetheless to fence for the 1936 German Olympic team. Slim, tall, flaxen-haired with charming manners and a smile as bright and sudden as her foil, she speaks English with no accent, an occasional ja. Last week she reproached photographers who asked her to pose in bright sunlight: "The last pictures in California were in the sun. They made my nose too long. Like Cyrano almost...
Yesterday morning unexpectedly it happened. Steadying his head to prevent its rolling heavily off onto the floor the Vagabond groaned from his couch, achieved the window, and peered querulously up into the April sky.

Lined up in the fight against cancer last week were sunlight and a dye called phloxine. At Washington's Carnegie Institution young John F.

Sunlit Coral Alle was a gentle blue and yellow composition of coral polyps and purplish-brown sea fans. Aside from their paleontological significance the pictures suggested pleasant decorations for yachts, bathrooms, villas...
...word nudism does not appear in my paper. I know nothing about nudism. Yet there is a modern tendency to bold and repeated exposure of the body to wind, and especially to sunlight, which, carried to excess, produces some cancers of the skin directly and causes chronic changes in the skin of many subjects which eventually lead to cancer of the skin. . . . Every physician knows that farmers and seamen are especially prone to develop skin cancer...
