...couple of years ago an outraged cry of questioning arose from certain corners, so that we know have a number of people bent on tearing down the structure which was bop. Some of these innovators are trying a wholesale application of the methods and/or attitudes of classical music; others have undertaken a revision of jazz by using the unique materials of jazz.

...Columbia, with its hottest team in years, was out to even some scores-specifically, 61-0 in 1958 and 43-2 last year. At the end of three periods it looked as if the vengeance-bent Lions might do just that. They led 19-7, and an all too familiar sense of frustration numbed home town fans among a sellout crowd of 25,500 in New Brunswick...
