...horsepower will be stepped up from 130 to around 160. Ford has also spent millions on its powerful (up to 200 h.p.) new Mercury. Fanciest eye catcher: the Montclair, a new road-hugging car that will be close to the lowest in the industry. Last week brothers Henry, Ben and Billy Ford gave everyone a taste of the rugged kind of competition that they intend to serve up. They showed off their Thunderbird sports car and put a price on it of $2,695, f.o.b. Detroit, a full $500 below Chevrolet's Corvette...
Green coach Tom Dent, now in his 31st year, has a team he hopes will equal last year's which lost only one game. Center forward Egil stigum and inside left Ben Wade will lead the Green attack...
Charles MacArthur and Ben Hecht, whose Front Page is still circulating, also engineered this movie, and its hectic, rarely subtle humor is their trademark. Except for the absence of a heroine, the nicest thing about Gunga Din is the movie's willingness to take itself with a block of salt.

"Don't call me angry," he says, with a thin smile. More important, Levine has steadily improved both as a painter and as an ovserver...
...main problem for Little has been finding a replacement for last year's iron man left tackle John Casella. Ex-Marine Ben Hoffman, who is the heaviest member of the squad at 225 pounds, won the right tackle spot last year and has held onto it. Instead of Casella on the left this year, Little has started Paul Tremblay, a 205 pound sophomore. Captain Opydyke is at right guard and Fred Bucci, a 200 pound junior, is at left guard John Nelson, who alternated at center last year, will go at the pivot position today...
