Anderson tied a Yale record in the 220 with a 2:05.5 clocking last Wednesday, and reportedly has gotten down to a phenomenal 2:02.7 in practice. Jecko, a member of the Olympic 800-meter relay team, is just behind him, but will probably be saved for other events...

The line, "If they give you twenty years, I'll wait for you; if they hang you, I'll always remember you," which Spade...
...threaten factory and mine employers with a strike if any Hungarians were hired. Like any other confidence man, the party wanted no swindled customers mingling with the suckers and queering its pitch. Its alarm was well-founded. Already, C.G.T. membership has fallen off sharply in factories where Hungarians had gotten jobs...
