Then, with the graduation of the center trio, Gaffney, Jones, and Kessler, Wilson was moved to a guard. Dick Harlow felt that there was little to choose between him and Boston, and that by such a shift both could be in the game at the same time. Now, with Russell's temporary withdrawal from competition, Wilson has again been used as a convenient gap-plugger. He has played center at Andover, and for a time on his Freshman eleven...
First of the Italian trio was a trimotored Savoia-Marchetti piloted by Lieut.-Commander Samuele Cupini and Captain Amedeo Paradisi, who covered the 3,800 miles in 17½ hours at an average of 219 m.p.h. Co-pilot of the third Italian ship, only half-hour behind, was none other than Lieutenant Bruno Mussolini, thickset second son of Il Duce. On his account, the crowds at Le Bourget had all been carefully frisked by police before admission. With scrupulous politeness and notable lack of enthusiasm, they applauded as each plane landed.

There one sweltering day last week, after a few rounds of cool Budweiser, some 35 financial newshawks sat down at a long table as the guests of Robert Ralph Young, amiable spokesman-member of the trio which bought control of the Van Sweringen railroad empire from George A. Ball, the Muncie, Ind. fruit-jar tycoon (TIME, May 3). It was quiet Mr. Young who described himself and his two partners-Allan P. Kirby and Frank F. Kolbe-as "just babes in the woods." Last week...
...Smith of Watford, England, agreed. During the two-hour trip Carnaggio interspersed his sight-seeing lecture with many a remark about the beauties of nearby Virginia. Upon returning to the hotel he easily sold the Smiths on the idea of a $75 trip through Virginia. Three weeks later the trio turned up in Manhattan, having been to Mt. Vernon, Arlington, Yorktown, Jamestown, Charlottesville, over the Skyline Drive to Gettysburg, Pa., then north through Harrisburg to Montreal, Ottawa, then south again through Lake Placid, Albany, Saratoga Springs, Mirror Lake and West Point...
