...this program should be a sincere effort to make a multi-lateral document of the Monroe Doctrine. Certainly our self-as-sumed responsibility as a querelous, often mistaken, and sometimes violently active "governor" of this hemisphere has proved more than we want and probably more than we can cope with today. It is true that a multi-lateral convention will involve a certain measure of limited, mutual responsibility. That, however, is to be expected, and any sign of the United States demanding something for nothing will be disasterous to any hopes the American peoples may entertain concerning peace and security...

...Phil Cope, University of Southern California senior, co-holder of the U. S. 120-yd. high hurdles record, dreamed he saw burglars crawling through his bedroom window, sprang up to repulse the invaders, hurdled through the window. At a Los Angeles hospital surgeons took 40 stitches to close gashes in his left hand and both feet. His wife slept soundly through his nightmare and leap. His greatest regret: having to call off a projected fishing trip...

...hunt, is the vent to all her immoderate enthusiasm. When the butler's room is about to be searched for missing pearls, she tears through the house like a four-year-old looking for the Christmas tree, deliriously screaming.

But, there being no intention to slight that genius of suavity, William Powell, it must be conceded that none other could preserve the impeccable...

...most immediate need of the department is for more men to cope with the students taking its course. Music 1 has three hundred members: a professor and an assistant give this course, which means that one man has to teach six sections of fifty men each. The advanced study of music requires individual attention almost entirely, and this it is next to impossible to provide; the seven men on the staff of the department are over-worked, and it has been necessary to group the graduate students together in small courses under the general heading of Music...

Harlem sages shook their heads dolefully last week over what they regarded as one more failure of private capital to cope with the social and economic problems of Negroes. From the beginning the Dunbar Apartments rocked precariously on deep tremors of Negro sensitiveness. Rentals were planned at $9 per room per month, to enable Negro workers to support their families without doubling up in the usual Harlem manner of two or three families to an apartment. The rooms were small, the construction poor. To meet maintenance and amortization charges the rents were finally set at $11.50 to $17.50 per month...
