Coverage

"If we can't help out a man who is doing more than his share for the school by playing on its teams, why should we break our necks to dig up some Japanese student whose assets are dubious and finance his education?"

"There are any number of men who were apparently so unfortunate as to have been born of Occidental parents right here in Vermont who could use scholarships. Why chase out to the West Coast looking for a little color."

"Why, if we are so interested in promoting friendly relations, do we stop at American-born Japanese when we now have any number of Japanese prisoners of war?"
