...coach could complain about the work of Harvard's fullbacks. Captain John Sanacore, tough, hard-working, well-skilled on land and above it, will probably move up from the all-Ivy second team to the top Ivy squad. His mirror image at right fullback, Lorenzo DiBonaventura, played almost as well as Sanacore, while Duggan and Sergienko in the middle quickly learned to play well together and stop opponents from going for Harvard's jugular and drawing blood...

Some entrepreneurs also complain that corporate giants are indifferent to small projects. Harris J. Bixler, president of Boston's Avco Everett Research Laboratory, contends that new products that promise tidy but unextravagant revenues go unsupported by Big Business even though the initial investment might be low. Says he: "Large companies could care less about the guy who has a $100,000 idea. They'd lose that in the paper-clip account." Such technological triumphs as Xerography and Polaroid film were developed by small innovator-entrepreneurs only after larger firms turned down the ideas...
