Connecticut. The two eventually enrolled into Yale University, enlisted in the
Reserve Officer Training Corps, and became, “[…] reporters for The Baltimore News”

invested in making their own iconic periodical. On March 3, 1923, the first TIME
magazine published. It used to be “[…] summarized and organized the news so that
“busy men" could stay informed” (time.com). The magazine’s typical content used to
expose topic ranging from heated court cases to business and leisure. Modern day TIME
