...pray that Dr. Richards' medical tests are directed more scientifically than this music test. Can he think that the noisy street is a proper laboratory for the sounding of the most exquisite notes played with the Kreisler spirit and finesse? Does he not realize that many of those walking along a side walk would not be guilty of sitting in a concert hall and have, therefore, nothing to do with the test...

Brown had pitched a heady game up until the fifth and seemed to be coasting along under a comfortable lead. He had allowed only four hits and had come through the previous innings in fine fettle but a walk to Batchelder started him off on the wrong foot, and, after Devens went out on an infield play, Bassett got the hit that really began the rally. After that came singles by Nugent and McGrath and then Ticknor sent them all home on a triple to right. Wood followed this up with a homer, the first of two that he garnered...

...Union the only place for freshman dining halls. Memorial Hall has been suggested; but it is not the only alternative. The Union is probably as far a walk from some of the Yard dormitories as any building in the University. There are buildings in the Yard, or nearer the Square end of the Yard which could be used. What seems to recommend the Union to the Overseers is the cheapness with which it can be converted. I suggest that the University could better afford to build a new set of freshman dining halls than to sacrifice a most valuable possession...

Cock o' the Walk (Sono-Art). Only the most skillful playing could have given a credible air to this complicated and artificial story. It was written by Arturo Mom, motion picture reviewer of La Nation of Buenos Aires, who apparently compiled it by pasting up some of his old notices. He includes a jailbreak, an attempted suicide, a marriage triangle, a race-with-death in fast cars along a headland. The one real and potentially effective suggestion of the picture-the relations between an egotistic young musician and the waif he has married for commercial reasons-is spoiled...

...traits, plays a $450 banjo, also the zither the xylophone. . . . All of them have something they like to do in the fall and winter-their time for big meals, things to drink, late sleeping, being with the family, making a little money on the side. But now you may walk into a pullman car on one of the overland limiteds and see a bunch of them sitting around, looking bigger in their store clothes than on the field, sunburned from the Florida training season, playing bridge or poker, drinking charged water or ginger ale with nothing in it. For last...
