These were part of the things that a tribunal of sport leaders throughout the U. S. said last week about Atlanta's Robert Tyre Jones Jr. Out of a selected panel of ten amateur athletes (TIME, Dec. 1) they named him No. 1, gave him the Amateur Athletic Union's James E. Sullivan Memorial Medal for 1930 as the amateur who "has done most to advance the cause of sportsmanship." Jones got 1,625 votes from the Union's members; Clarence De Mar, runner up, 800; Mrs. Helen Wills Moody...

After all, poetry is not a written record of what one does. Were it so, Shakespeare would have been...
...years ago the primitive, pagan rhythms of Le Sacre du Printemps established Russian Igor Stravinsky as the most original, most compelling of modern composers. Last week in Boston his Symphonic de Psaumes (Symphony of Psalms), in spirit far removed from his sensual celebration of fertility, was given as a part of the Boston Symphony's ambitious semicentennial program.
