Prize Sophomore, Galen Felt, led off with a 3 to 0 win at number one, while Sandy Parker and Orme Wilson duplicated his feat at eight and nine. The other matches were closer, with Sonny Lyell winning 3 to 2 at number two, Gene Nickerson 3 to 1 at three, Decker Orr 3 to 2 at five, Dave de Kruif 3 to 1 at six, and Captain Don Marvin 3 to 1 at seven. Number four man, Hal Barker, dropped a close five game match to Leopold of Dartmouth...
...force of habit, Louis Krasner fiddled so hard he nearly dropped his bow. The bewildered audience couldn't tell whether all of Schönberg's "unplayable" notes were being played or not. When it was over, the orchestra looked embarrassed, the audience, impressed by an obvious feat of strength and skill, drowned out a few discreet hisses with well-bred applause...
...crossroads through which Italy, unless she violates Yugoslav neutrality and goes around by the Monastir Gap (Bitolj), must pass to strike at Salonika. It is also a gateway to loannina (Yanina) and the long rough road to Athens. Pounding and pushing the Italians out of Corizza was a feat of which the strategic importance overshadowed even the valor of the men who did it.

His dance sequence after getting bopped on the head with a shovel, and the nonchalant feat of accompanying the Fifth Hungarian Rhapsody with his razor while shaving a frightened customer are as good as anything he did in the era of "The Kid" and "The Circus." Naturally he plays Adenoid Hinkel, the Phooey of Tomania, superbly. But here he is moving in a strange and discordant...
...England scribes would probably nick-name the backfield "the scrambled eggs" in honor of Dick Harlow. The newest angle to be played up for a local consumption is the likening of Coach Frank Leahy of Boston College to the immortal Knute Rockne (Leahy's team accomplished the stupendous feat of beating Tulane, which has yet to win its first game this year). Dave Egan was only groping around in the dark last spring, letting loose an occasional blast at Harvard, but this fall he found the nice-sounding rallying point he was looking for. Extensive research convinced him that Harvard...
