Sid is flat-out fuming that the Twins signed Nishioka while we're still at war with Japan.

There are no athletic scholarships in the Ivy League, however grants from the schools for middle income students, often reduce the cost of attendence to about the same as the U.

Sid just announced that he is selling his Kimberly-Clark stock holdings (he endorses the use of "Depends") and will donate the proceeds to JFK's re-election campaign!
