Though the varsity outcome is not in doubt (Yale is expected to take their 182nd straight dual meet), Ulen echoed a prevailing thought that ex-Crimson star Dave Hawkins will have his freshman unit in the winning column over the highly touted Yalies. Perhaps this points up Ulen's hopeful prediction made last night--"No one will break Yale's record ...until Harvard next year...
Only five Yardlings saw real action in the win, but each reached double figures in the scoring column.

Besides Frank Starzel, about the only Pantagraph editor to break the Page One rule was Adlai E. Stevenson, one of the five grandchildren and heirs of the late Pantagraph publisher William O. Davis. During a short hitch as assistant managing editor years ago, Stevenson (who is still a major stockholder in the Pantagraph) dared to put an area story-of a southern Illinois tornado -on the front page...
