...students should not support Sullivan merely because he has ceased to make them the butt of his new stories. Much more convincing are "his generosity to the needy people of the ward" and his improvement in the sewerage system which eliminated the danger of flooded cellars. To his job as Councillor, Sullivan has lent a "glamor" which "The Boston Evening American" admits "would take a whole page" to describe and which is rivaled only by B.D.D. Frazier in her own Ward. For the Harvard voter there is but one choice for City Councillor, and if he is slightly hesitant, Sullivan...

...real war emergency at hand, Johnson tried again. Through his War Resources Board, he started honeymooning with New York's very unromantic powerboss, Floyd L. Carlisle (who would like in the process of integration to get a good piece of Howard Hopson's old Associated Gas & Electric system, which sticks into his New York organization at Rochester, Staten Island, elsewhere). Any chance that some arrangement could be made whereby Mr. Carlisle would become War II's No. 1 Dollar a Year man, and deliver the industry's cooperation in a big building program, suddenly vanished...

This would permit operating companies to go on financing new equipment by selling bonds, preferred stock...

...operating company construction (forced by threatening power shortages)-without any holding company shakeup-may reach somewhere close to $600,000,000 (against perhaps $500,000,000 this year), but is not likely to go higher. Some plans already outlined: > Companies in the Electric Bond and Share system have budgeted $80,000,000 of new construction for 1940 ($66,000,000 authorized this year). > Wendell Willkie's Commonwealth & Southern system (which two weeks ago sold more property to TVA-at a loss of about one-third on book value) is spending an extra $22,000,000 over & above its normal...

Dick Harlow's system of coaching has been called too complicated for Sophomores to absorb, but last Saturday's game proved that it can be done. With the whole team veteran and newcomer alike, clicking as a unit, Harvard football is getting up from the floor after a short count, still swinging. The genius of Dick Harlow's coaching is undoubted after the way he has molded slightly undermanned Crimson teams to Big Three champions in the last two years. This fall he was faced with a gigantic rebuilding project, and it is not surprising that the going has been...
