But he did talk the Chinese out of coins-with-a-hole. The "World's Champion Mint" will make no "doughnut money." Thus far it has cost...
Less than a year ago gentle, cultured Century magazine found the world moving at "too fast a pace," changed its own periodicity from monthly to quarterly (TIME, Aug. 5).

No matter where he has the ball, there is always the feeling that he may romp for a touchdown on the next play. Hewitt is one of the best looking backs Columbia has sent on the field since the halcyon days of Morley and Weekes. He, too, is a marvelous running back and the duel between the Green and Light Blue stars should produce plenty of fireworks for spectators at this contest. BY TIME...
