It concerns Napoleon, a man whom Shaw shows as a bad little boy who stamps his foot, spits, and glowers when he can't have his lollypops.

Vinceton thumped Cornell 32-21, mak-ng Princeton the only major Eastern earn still undefeated, and prime favorite o take the Ivy League championship. On he Pacific Coast, Stanford upset J.S.C. 27-19, to become the leading candidate for the Rose Bowl...
