When the fullback doesn't go in motion, he provides the plunging power, either straight or after a fakeoff. John Powers and Jack Davison have been splitting the work, according to scout Bill Barclay's information. The quarterback does not carry the ball much except as a receiver on pass plays...
...clock is crowded. Cherington's Government 155a, "Government Regulation of Industry," is a good course under an expert showman (Emerson D). Finley's breathless lectures in Humanities 2 are rated among the College's best (Fogg Large Room). Music 1, under Davison, convenes in Paine Hall.

But they are both honest, both pretty much unrehearsed, both happy and medolie. These men are playing around with old friends. When Ory breaks in to ask "How you feeling, Mr. Wilson?", the latter replies with a two-chorus solo that is all the answer required. If you're sick of singing saxophones, try these for a chaser. At present, only Briggs and Briggs and the College Music...
