...must be remembered that the building is still far from built. The fund drive has yet to be organized; even the committee to raise the funds is not definitely chosen. To be sure, the University's support of the drive, although it remains unofficial, is a big step forward, but the problem of money is still a considerable barrier.

The last two movements, if heard out of context, would be quite enjoyable; there is a nice, smooth melodic line in the third movement and some sprightly tunes in the finale, but these seem divorced from what had gone before...
...Crimson's modest fullback, Culver, stated, "Our line was the difference today." Meigs, who led the forward wall in exploding the Pollch Myth, commented, "We've got the best line coach in the country--Ted Schmitt...
