...behind Cornell, which came in a strong second in the tournament, only two points behind winner Pitt. Cornell, last year's Ivy titlists, entered only four men in the tourney, but all four advanced to the finals, and three, Carmen Molino at 130, Dick Vincent at 157, and Steve Friedman at 177, won their divisions...
They base their conclusion on experience. Dr. Paul Friedman of Manhattan's Beth Israel Hospital and Dr. Louis Linn of Manhattan's Mount Sinai Hospital were aboard the lie de France on the night of July 25, 1956, when the Stockholm collided with the Andrea Doria. As several hundred survivors were brought onto the lie, the psychiatrists spoke to them and noted their psychological condition. Reporting their findings last week in the American Journal of Psychiatry, Drs.

...Shakespeare's plays, scores have turned to cryptology to prove that the Bard's words were in a kind of cipher that concealed messages from their true author. Last week, in a new book called The Shakespearean Ciphers Examined (Cambridge University; $5), U.S. Cryptologists William and Elizebeth Friedman gave evidence that should discredit these investigators once and for all.

...dealing with these various theories, the Friedmans more than once use the methods set forth to prove that William Friedman himself wrote the plays (e.g., in attacking one favorite numerological theory, they show that WM. FRIEDMAN and FRANCIS BACON both equal 100). Through a meticulous study of Elizabethan printing methods, combined with a whole series of highly technical cryptological checks, they also demolish the theories of the late Elizabeth Gallup, who in the '20s and '30s attracted a large following among Baconians. So far as cryptology is concerned, conclude the Friedmans sternly, Shakespeare is still Shakespeare. "We suggest...
