...some of the best in their line. With them as a short subject, semi-cartoon, semi-surrealism, is a remarkable film in which designs and drawings have been painted directly on the frames of the film strip itself. It races by in wild color and sound like a fast dream, and is just as fascinating. Feature and shorts combined, the Kenmore this week is probably the best light film bill you will see in Boston all winter...

Coach Bill McCurdy put his hands in his pockets and walked here and there to keep warm while Ed Martin went through some prancing exercises and Jed Fitzgerald ran fast laps to loosen up his shoulders.

The great breakthrough came with the development of a super pulse-servo that could handle 6,000 pulses per second, fast enough to direct the most complex piece of milling work. To start the system, the operator merely runs the machine through its work by hand a first time.

...pocket-sized quarterback began to call his own number at this point, and he got results fast. Squirming through the Yale line on "sneaks," and rolling out around the ends, Ravenel personally gained 52 of the 73 yards covered by the Crimson in its first touchdown drive. And it was quite fitting that he himself registered that score (at the very moment the first half ended) on a five-yard roll-out to his right...
