...across their message in talks with small groups and individuals. Their reception has been cool, if not hostile; most of the industrial workers have no patience with revolutionary jargon and little sympathy for comparatively privileged college students who spout it. The president of the Brewery Workers Union, Karl F. Feller, says: "A well-placed fist could be the welcome that awaits S.D.S. revolutionaries," and a Chicago United Automobile Workers' spokesman says, "Those kids couldn't organize their way out of a paper...

With perhaps five starts still ahead of him, McLain has already surpassed the best single-season performances of Carl Hubbell, Bob Feller, Warren Spahn, Whitey Ford and Sandy Koufax.
