Offensively, it was a rather strange game for the varsity. Its "bread and butter" plays--the power plays over tackle and the "dives" into the middle of the opposing line--brought very little yardage; and time and again in crucial situations all seemed to depend on the ability of quarterback Charlie Ravenel to come up with a tricky maneuvre which Princeton would not expect...
Shortly after Oklahoma had made Rodgers and Hammerstein the best-known combination since bread and butter, Mr. Hammerstein is said to have taken a large ad in Variety, the theatrical trade paper. It gave a long list of the flops with which he had been connected, and under these the words, "I've done it before and I can do it again...

Also more and more citizens are seeing a greater danger in postponing education, much less setting it back to the Eighteenth Century, than in sending their children to school with negroes.
