...home, Dr. Bogle confabulated with henchmen. Candidate Dewey confabulated, also Candidate Oliver. After covert dickers the association elected the Army's Robert T. Oliver their president-elect for 1930-31. An able dental technician, President-Elect Oliver is, like almost all his colleagues, not an important scientist. Neither Who's Who in America nor American Men of Science recognizes him. Neither do these compilations recognize outgoing President Howe or incoming President Bogle...

Coffee, Brazilian coffee, made U. S. businessmen hop and howl like Hottentots last week around Manhattan's big brass Coffee Ring. They hopped on each others toes. They hopped higher on camp stools. When they could neither hop high enough or howl loud enough to make a buyer or seller on the other side of the ring understand, they bent low and plunged for the round brass railing, elbowing each others stomachs, yelling "Seven-Jan-Santos!" or "Four-Dec-Rio!" Arms waved and fingers waggled. It was stark, raving business bedlam-the biggest, blackest, wildest day in years...

In 1913 three sizable companies-Continental Can of New Jersey, Export and Domestic Can of New York, and Standard Tin Plate of Pennsylvania-combined to form Continental Can Co., Inc.

...after candidates for Lynn's mayoralty had filed their papers, normal newspapers reported that the candidates numbered six. But the Enwright Telegram-News headlined: "Five Seeking Bauer's* Seat." This was neither a scoop for the Telegram-News nor an omission of ignorance. The omitted candidate was Lynn M. Ranger, president of the Lynn City Council. In 1927, when Mayor Curley jailed him, Publisher Enwright received a letter from Mr. Ranger alleging an Enwright "plot to defeat decent government." Result: Mr. Ranger's name is never printed in Mr. Enwright's newspaper...

Unless this attitude changes, Princeton will be faced with the alternatives of taking beatings as a matter of course, or of adopting much softer schedules. We can envisage neither situation with equanimity. It is axiomatic that Princeton has been most successful when her teams have been facing the biggest odds; this has been due in large measure to the enthusiastic co-operation of the entire University. Last year there was much talk on the Campus about making the schedule harder. Well, Amherst and Brown were no set-ups, and the next five will all be bigger and tougher. Bill Roper...
