What you’re looking at
This page contains a "Leaders" section—a collection of short humorous anecdotes and jokes sourced from college newspapers and regional publications. The humor relies on wordplay and situational comedy typical of 1920s-era collegiate wit. Notable jokes include card game double-entendre ("trumped me wid a club"), a car-crash innuendo joke, and ethnic dialect humor featuring Black characters (common but now-offensive stereotyping of the era). The page's main cartoon shows a well-dressed man confronting a woman in furs—captioned "A social uplifter"—likely satirizing wealthy men posing as philanthropists while pursuing romantic/sexual encounters. The right column advertises Mothersill's seasickness remedy and announces "Judge Jr." radio programming on WJZ at 7:30 PM Thursdays, indicating Judge magazine's multimedia expansion into broadcasting during radio's early commercial boom.
