...handling a Long Island jewel theft case, they flop from the distinguished station of international crime experts to the ignoble confinement of the local gaol. The cause of their downfall: softheartedness and general confusion on the part of both partners regarding the policy of the firm as a unit. Ludwig Satz, notable Jewish actor, assumes the role of Potash, once played by Barney Bernard. His is an original, shrewd Abe. As the overlording Perlmutter, Robert Leonard becomes exasperated beautifully. Of course, the audience is amused and Abe and Mawruss are released from gaol, so that they may appear before future...

Economists were to elucidate family production, consumption, and community life...
...pilot was Trubee Davison. His back was broken, he was crippled for life, he would never fly over the French battlefields. The year before, a mere sophomore at Yale, Trubee Davison had seen the stark necessity for trained U. S. aviators, had, by incomparable enthusiasm, created the Yale Aviation Unit, of which Admiral Sims later said, "The great aircraft force which was ultimately assembled in Europe had its beginning in a small group of undergraduates at Yale" (TIME, June 14, BOOKS). Trubee's father, the late Henry P. Davison, Morgan partner, and his father's friend, were unable...
