In retaliation, Soviet secret police pounced on Hagueno's Russian woman translator and clamped her into jail. Promptly Japanese newsorgans announced that Marshal Bluecher had been not only arrested but had committed suicide...
...Cornell that he was the top-ranking Crimson defensive back. He has been out of three days practice this week with a cold but returned yesterday to try out his new wing position. A shifty, hard-driver runner, he is slated to give Torby Macdonald more competition than the "Flash" has encountered...
