Senaga brought forth a longtime lieutenant named Saichi Kaneshi to run for his old job. Kaneshi's only opponent was Tatsuo Taira, a onetime Japanese bureaucrat and small businessman whom U.S. authorities ejected as governor of Okinawa in 1952 because of his vaguely Socialist and pro-Japanese leanings. In the campaign, even Businessman Taira charged that "the Americans are trampling on the will of the people." As for Left-Winger Kaneshi, he called on the electorate to "avenge Senaga." Much of the time, Kaneshi sat smirking nervously at the back of his own platform while ex-Mayor Senaga hailed...
Smoothly, the well-drilled West Virginians whipped the ball back and forth until baby-faced Sophomore Jerry West broke free, twisted through the air and sank a layup that made the score 75 to 74. Then Schaus's mountain boys got a whopping break. A mix-up between officials gave them the ball under the Villanova hoop.

Hypocrites & Deadbeats. When friends of Baylor denied the girl's charge and pictured her as a wanton, Brann let go with everything in his arsenal. He sneered that Baylor had "received an ignorant little Catholic as raw material and sent forth two Baptists as the finished product." He flayed it as "a manufactory of ministers and Magdalenes" and "worse than a harem." A mob battered Brann, almost strung him to a tree on the Baylor campus. Two men died in a gunfight over his charges. But he kept returning to the attack against "splenetic-hearted hypocrites and pietistical deadbeats...
