1934 college football season, AP Poll and the Dickinson rankings
The first ever published AP Poll came in 1934. However, this was a one time event and the AP sportswriters' poll would not be continuously until 1936. Frank G. Dickinson, an economics professor at the University of Illinois, had invented the Dickinson System to rank colleges based upon their records and the strength of their opposition. The Rissman Trophy, and later the Rockne Memorial Trophy, was awarded to the winning university.


1934 college football season, AP Poll and the Dickinson rankings
In an AP story with the caption "Figure This Out! ", the system was explained:"For each victory of a first division team over another first division team, the winner gets 30 points and the loser 15 points. For each tie between two firstdivision teams, each team gets 22.5 points. For each victory of a first division team over a second division team, the first division winner gets 20 points and the second division loser 10 points. For each tie between two seconddivision teams, each gets 15 points.


1934 college football season, AP Poll and the Dickinson rankings
For each tie between a first division team and a second division team, the first division team gets 15 points and the second divisionteam gets 20 points. Then, after each team has been given its quota of points its final "score" is tabulated by taking an average on the number of games played."

1934 flood in Poland
1934 flood in Poland (Polish: Powódź w Polsce, 1934) was the biggest flood in the Second Polish Republic. It began with heavy rains in the Dunajec river basin, which took place between 13 and 17 July 1934. In the following days, the flood spread to the basins of the Raba, Wisłoka, and Skawa, all of which are tributaries to the Vistula. The disaster took the lives of 55 people and caused damages estimated at 60 million interbellum Polish zlotys.


1934 flood in Poland, The flood
The first heavy rains took place on 13 July 1934, and it continued during the coming days, with more than 50 mm of rain noted on 14 and 15 July. Peak of the rainfall was marked on 16 July, with heaviest rains ever recorded in the Dunajec basin. On that day, 85 mm (3.3 in) of rain fell in the village of Witów, and in Kuźnice—199 mm (7.8 in). On the same day, Polish record of rainfall was broken in Tatras valley of Hala Gąsienicowa, where 255 mm (10.0 in) were recorded.


1934 flood in Poland, The flood
Even though the Dunajec basin was the most affected, heavy rain was also recorded in the basins of the Skawa, and the Wisłoka. Combined rain of two days (16 and 17 July) amounted in some locations to more than 300 mm (11.8 in). According to contemporary sources, some areas looked like giant seas, with only the chimneys of houses peeking above the water.


1934 flood in Poland, The flood
Levels of the rivers which have their sources in the Tatras and the Gorce Mountains rose immediately, and on 19 July the flood wave, swollen by excessive waters of the tributaries, appeared on the Vistula near Sandomierz. Due to pressure of the water, levees were broken, and thousands of acres of fields were covered in water. At the same time, this caused the flood wave to decrease, and by the time it reached Warsaw (22 July), it was much smaller than expected, and did not inflict much damage in Poland’s capital.


1934 flood in Poland, Effects
Altogether, the water flooded 1260 square kilometers, killing 55 people. Damaged or destroyed were 22,059 buildings, 167 kilometres (104 mi) of roads, and 78 bridges. The damages were estimated at 12 million U.S. dollars, or more than 60 million interbellum Polish zlotys. As a result of the catastrophic flood, two reservoirs were constructed on the Sola, and the Dunajec. The Porąbka dam was finished in 1936, but the engineers didn't complete the Rożnów dam before the outbreak of World War II; the dam was completed by the Germans in 1941.

Several more teams changed from a single uniform to a light version and dark version. The Detroit Red Wings introduced a white version of their existing uniform, swapping red elements for white elements. The Chicago Black Hawks introduced a new uniform design, and differentiated between versions by using white in the main horizontal stripe and their socks, and using brown in the other version. The New York Americans and Toronto Maple Leafs continued using their two sets of uniforms. The Boston Bruins, Montreal Canadiens, Montreal Maroons, New York Rangers and St. Louis Eagles used only a single uniform design each.

A bombshell trade was made with Howie Morenz, Lorne Chabot and Marty Burke going to Chicago for Leroy Goldsworthy, Roger Jenkins, and Lionel Conacher.

The Canadiens then traded Lionel Conacher and Herb Cain to the Maroons for Nels Crutchfield. The trades did not help and the Canadiens lost some fans.
