Nazi calls for German workers to return home from Great Britain, The Netherlands, Switzerland went out recently from Berlin. Not orders but offers of a sure job, a furnished home, a certain future went to German nationals, naturalized immigrants and even native-born U. S. citizens. Just what the response has been, neither German consular officials nor Nazi organizations now recruiting in the U. S. would say last week. Inquirers had some luck in Milwaukee, only because a local Nazi was so indiscreet as to recruit too many at one time and get himself into the newspapers...

...Renovation (divorce in Nevada) which requires six weeks' residence. Last week on Valentine's Day the rugged (and strongly Roman Catholic) State of Montana set up a rival divorce market when its Senate passed (35 to 18) a lower-house bill, which Governor Roy E. Ayers was sure to sign, requiring residence of only 30 days for divorcers, on broad grounds from incompatibility to insanity...

...reason for the Ulenian gloom is quite obvious. With Bossie out, so vanishes a certain backstroke first; without Waldron, the medley and 200 breastroke are considerably weakened, while Stowell and White were sure point winners in their respective events.

Another Columbia threat is portly John Vergeichik in the sprints. He was good for under 54 seconds last year in the 100, but has failed to crack 55 this season. His 50-yard efforts also have not been startling this winter. Jim Curwen is sure to take both sprints handily, Eric Cutler and Frannie Powers will prevail over any Lion men in the distances, and Rusty Greenhood should have no trouble with Jack Keating of the Blue. In fact, Keating may take third behind Crimson's Chet Sagenkahn if the latter continues his consistent work on the springboard. The Columbia...

...closing his laboratory henceforth to "visits from citizens of totalitarian states" Dr. Bridgman has, to be sure, made a magnificent protest. As an attempt to object publicly to the prostitution of knowledge to the worldly aims of an individual state the effort has proved wildly successful--the whole world is indisputably convinced of Dr. Bridgman's aversion to government regulation of scientific research. But in its broader significance, in the possible scope of its influence, the recently pronounced ban has several conspicuous aspects which stamp it as an impractical, misguided, dangerous effort...
