Until last Friday night Penn looked like just another doormat for the powerful Varsity swimmers. Then the Quakers rose up to topple the Green by the same score the Crimson had previously registered, thereby adding another row of wrinkles to the plentifully-furrowed brow of Coach Hal Ulan...
...throttle; 4,794,000 cars and trucks rolled off the lines. It was a gain of 55% over 1946, and 34% above 1939's production.
