Punter John Chapman hasn't been getting many assignments lately. The Big Green apparently would rather score every time they get the ball than go to all the trouble of kicking on fourth down...
...West Virginia, Senator Chapman Revercomb is probably closer to being a lame duck than any extant Republican. Although Dewey & Co. will be saddened to see Revercomb depart, they will undoubtedly be a bit relieved. Revercomb is roughly two miles to the right of present party leadership, and his public utterances often make even John Bricker look a little pink.

Although these ladies plainly suffer serious emotional upsets every time he comes near them, Randolph scarcely seems to notice. He is much too busy riding up, down and across the landscape, looking...
