Left. By Richard Teller Crane Jr., president of Crane Co. (plumbing) who died three weeks ago (TIME. Nov., 16): an estate estimated at $50,000,000, of which more than $1,200,000 goes to 4,000 old Crane employes. Amounts depend upon length of service, from ten years upwards, and upon whether the employe retained all of the stock Mr. Crane gave away in 1925, 1927, 1930; employes who disposed of all their stock (quoted now at $17) get nothing. Residue of the estate forms a trust fund for Mrs. Florence Crane, the widow, and Cornelius and Florence Crane...

But the fundamental courses which he needs are not given so that he can take them consecutively. For instance, in Zoology the three courses which are prerequisite to advanced work are given during the first half of the year. Since the first...
Yale won the toss and chose to depend the sunny side to kick to Harvard. Sensational playing began by Rotan kicking to Wood, the Harvard captain. By a lateral Crickard proceeded 25 yards to the Yale goal line, being forced out on Yale's 5-yard line. In two successive plays Crickard and White failed to gain. On the fourth down, Wood attempted a short pass but landed untouched on the Yale end zone...
...fully appreciate the literature of a people, unless one can write and speak the language of that people with some degree of proficiency, and thus realize the difficulties as well as the possibilities the language presents. Moreover, for the study of poetry, especially that of modern poets whose effects depend in a large measure on subtle cadences, an appreciation of the rhythmical and onomatopoetic peculiarities is essential...
