...hoped that in the final analysis this opportunity may be of positive benefit, but the medium of supervision and active direction in comprehensive intra-mural programs must play a large part in such development. A single director of intra-mural sports is hardly sufficient to produce a smoothly running system that must not only comprehend the body of undergraduates but the graduates of the various professional schools as well...
...Pennsylvania Circuit Court of Appeals, Miss Alice Gulielma Rowland and Miss Eleanor 0. Brownell, operators of the medium-fashionable Shipley School for girls at Bryn Mawr, Pa., were refunded $2,586.66 paid as income tax, although a lower court had ruled that the school was not a corporation entitled to "personal service classification."

...that a few worthy persons might "learn one thing every day," William David Moffat, onetime Scribner executive, in 1912 gathered a group of learned men about him to dispense information.

Pressure 100 miles up is calculated to be 1/300,000 of the pressure at sea level, practically a vacuum. Highly tenuous though that upper medium is, it is nonetheless dense enough to burn up meteors by its friction. Like the lower atmosphere it carries electrical charges. Proof of that is the great heights from which the curtains of Aurora Borealis, an electrical phenomenon, hang. If Professor Goddard, or anyone else, can learn the exact nature of that high zone it is conceivable that man will...
