...training stage, the Rhode Island State-Connecticut meet at Franklin Park tomorrow looks like a tough nut to crack. Rhode Island is a school that takes cross country very seriously and this season's team has already crushed Springfield College 20 to 41, a rout in a cross country two-way meet. Connecticut is an unknown quantity, but Jaakko is confident that this meet will give the team the necessary experience to face Dartmouth next week and the Yale-Princeton triangular in a fortnight...

...unionism can breed, the maritime unions looked to the shipping companies for aid and solace in the face of the most imposing rival their organizations had ever faced--the government.

Whatever it was, he now concludes that Europe's present tension is due largely to the U.S.'s failure to insist on a "democratic revolution" over there, via the Two-Way Passage idea or something like it. His summary of what did happen: Churchill, symbolizing "Conquest" rather than "Liberation," was able to "seduce" F.D.R. into a "counterrevolutionary foreign policy" by drumming up the dangers of the U.S.S.R. Author Adamic himself sees the U.S.S.R. as no particular danger to anyone. He considers...
