...really deserve it. For we are not altogether guiltless, if only in that we have allowed ourselves to be so poorly represented. Surely we ought to take care not to make the egregious mistake of supposing that the issue is one-sided; and we ought scrupulously to avoid letting those lead us or speak for us who have made the imposition of the symbol imperative.

...gone in the second quarter, Terrier wing Walt Katuschenko got by Crimson fullback Lanny Keyes and lofted a 25-yard crossing shot overs the arms of Tom Bagnoli to give B.U. a 1-0 lead.
