From the veterans' viewpoint the particular hero of last week's Bonus activities was New Jersey's Republican Representative Isaac ("Ike") Bacharach. In 1915 Mr. Bacharach went to Congress from Atlantic City. With his father he had prospered in the retail clothing trade, gone into real estate, lumber and banking when Atlantic City began booming as a resort, became a local tycoon. Seniority of service advanced him to the No. 3 majority place on the House Ways & Means Committee. There his dexterous management of politics and finance won him a reputation as the committee's "brain...

There is sound good sense to both of these statements, and nobody but a foot would disagree...
Yale pleads for a discarding of pretence. Its team must, "either be first rate or else admit a change of viewpoint and will fully take a back seat." As long ago as early October, we made the same plea in regard to the hollow sham and empty gesture of deferred practice. It has failed miserably of its purpose: and because early season games on the next two year's schedule are already arranged, the 15th of September ruling must go and one pretence at least be removed. When the mortgaged future has elapsed, we earnestly recommend an abbreviated schedule...
