Things are not so dark on Morning-side Heights, however, as Little would suggest. He has, after all, a pair of backs named Rossides and Kusserow, who have established or are threatening umpteen all-time Columbia records. With Ventan Yablonski, last year's fullback, graduated, Kusserow will probably return to his old fullback position this year...
...British with Their Cameras!" Unknown to the Russians, the people's attention by now had largely turned on an extraordinary drama at the Branden-burger Tor itself. A tall, dark youth had climbed the gate and was wrestling with the red flag on top. The crowd watched his progress with the hushed awe of an audience at an acrobatic show-even as pistol shots sporadically cracked out from the far side along Unter den Linden. Now the crowd cried: "Anbrennen!" (Burn it!). The first youth failed to get the flag down; two more tried, and the third finally sent...
Brilliant & Bold. What would Chicagoans see when the great dusty-rose curtain goes up this week?

...Labor Day, Southworth's boys met the second-place Brooklyn Dodgers in a battle that Boston historians may some day rank with Bunker Hill. With the help of six hits by Alvin Dark, Spahn won the 14-inning opener, 2-1, and Sain took the nightcap, 4-0. That dropped the Dodgers four games behind (and started them on their subsequent course down the league ladder...
Bunker Hill. Apart from Southworth, the Braves got most of their early-season drive from pepperpot Second Baseman Eddie Stanky, late of the Dodgers, almost a "playing coach" until he broke his ankle on a slide. It was Stanky who helped Rookie Shortstop Alvin Dark (now batting .331) off to his sensational start. Even without Stanky, Billy's boys picked up speed. For pitching, Southworth relied on two work horses-tobacco-chewing right-hander Johnny Sain, with two 20-game seasons under his belt, and lefthander Warren Spahn...
