...booming bats of the deep-dyed Crimsoneers are expected to smash out a total score sufficient to overcome any runs sneaked across by the opposition. In fact, Boston and New York sports-writers, after a look at the brutal P. street line-up, were privately confessing the feeling that tomorrow's engagement may well upset the 1923 high-water mark in the string of Crimson triumphs. That year the Crimesters came out on top by a 23 to 2 count; only the 1929 (23 to 2) victory and last year's overwhelming 23 to 2 win have approached the early...

George Marshall wired him: "All our confidence in you has been justified...
