...good time, check in at 11 Harrow House. That is the London address -so this movie says-of the wealthiest, stuffiest and best-guarded diamond exchange in the world. Needless to say, such an institution is likely to cause a certain amount of envy and resentment among those forced to do business with it.

Even for a dyed-in-the-wool rooter, double-knit uniforms, artificial turf, and blazer-and-turtleneck bedizened umpires all need at least ten years aging before they might be countenanced on the diamond.

Such gaudy perversions have me clinging to the Goldberg's Peanut Chews billboard which one adorned the left field wall in extinct Shibe Park's power alley. Still, there is nothing like...
Munro, who retired from varsity coaching duties last spring after a successful 26 years (192-85-25), used a three-man line and three halfbacks in the game. But he plans to switch to a 4-2-4 with a diamond defense for the next encounter with Brown Monday...
