Thus far the San Francisco club has been banking on tremendous hitting and the soft, slow curves of ex-American leaguers Billy Pierce and Billy O'Dell. That pair, and hard-throwing Juan Marichal have accounted for 20 of the club's 33 victories, but the staff cannot be called solid unless Mike McCormick returns to form...

Number one man Bob Bowditch, unbeaten against New England competition, heads the Crimson delegation and will be favored to take the singles championship he won as a sophomore two years ago. Last year at New Haven, Bowditch went to the semi-finals before losing to Yale's Donald Dell...

...remains from the top eight of Yale's great 1960 team, which swept through the entire season undefeated. Don Dell and Gene Scott, the finalists in last year's New England tournament, have graduated, as have Giff Hopkins, Rick Wallace and Sunny Howe.

With a handful of outstanding rookies and a tough nucleus of reliable stars, San Fransisco has the best combination of youth and experience in the league. Any one of four teams could beat them, but the Giants seem least likely...

...hellraiser, with its resourceful scamp of a hero-the traditionally pert and clever servant-engineering a whole repertory of deceptions with a full battery of slapstick. Based on a famous Roman play, Terence's Phormio, Les Fourberies is served up in the famous Italian style of the commedia dell' arte. For their sons' sake, Scapin hoodwinks two miserly fathers-one of whom, as the price of Scapin's saving his life, has offered him a coat "after I've worn it a little longer." Whether mimicking the old boys or mulcting them, whether hiding them...
