...comments on the present state of Franco-American relations are at once perceptive and optimistic. "The idea of France's withdrawing from NATO is absurd.

The varsity's midseason string of more than 200 scoreless minutes produced two extremely vocal clashes. In the 0-0 tie with Williams, Eph goalie Bob Adams continually exhorted his teammates to "get the big guy"--Keyes, the Crimson's main defensive cog. The Ephmen did their best, once actually dazing the big full-back, but they could not halt his effectiveness...
