...Even so, such tags provide interesting material for a study of the times." The tutor idly leafed a copy of "Dichtung und Wahreit" which belonged to the bedraggled sycophant. "Just as these strange inscriptions will interest the historians of two thousand years from now. From this flyleaf they will reconstruct a picture of Professor "Waltz," smoking an unusual under-slung pipe and wearing a hat as he lectures on the Sesenheim idyll. And perhaps correctly they will surmise that the student was bored and undutiful, since he filled the cover with diagrams of football plays...
...unthinkable. Yet censorship of a contemptibly petty stamp exists in this University. I refer to the use in certain language courses of texts in which the editors have seen fit to make deletions from the originals. Any one who has compared the authorized edition of Keller's "Romeo und Julia auf dem Dorfe" with the high school text now used in German 1a can appreciate how the editor of the latter has so subtly and judiciously blue-penciled as to change completely the essential point of the story...
...this proved the exceeding wisdom of Germany's great iron & steel mongering House of Krupp, now headed by Bertha Krupp's husband, Dr. Gustav Krupp von Bohlen und Halbach.

"I think it is amusing for a police chief to accept challenges from men he is forced to arrest." chuckled Chief Diels. "I love to fight. There's no grander feeling than beating your man in a fair fight. I shall fight them all! As to the pistol...
...dairy products. Last week the Vegetarian Superman flew over Poland's hated Corridor to a big cozy country house at Neudeck in East Prussia. There he gripped hands with that hearty eater of tenderloin steaks, pork sausages, pigs-knuckles and chopped raw beef & onions, President Paul von Beneckendorff und von Hindenburg. In a sense the meeting was historic. It marked a knife line between the original Hitler Cabinet containing "Safeguard Ministers"-old & trusted friends of Der Reichspräsident-and a new Hitler Cabinet which the events of the week showed will be without safeguards and 100% harmonized with...
