Danny Endweiss, Yale's brilliant 130-point diver, is still out with an appendix operation; Ed Gibson, Navy leaper who has also cracked 130, is unable to enter, and Army's Crandall, another crackerjack diver, probably will not be able to compete. Thus, Rusty has the best chance, of the Harvard delegation, of bringing home the bacon...
Navy has been beaten by Princeton, 61 to 14, but Washington and Jefferson lost to the sailors, 61 to 44. Of the two scores the former shows most convincingly just what is to be expected from the Annapolis affair. Navy's only first came in the dive won by Gibson with 123.9 points.

If Ernest Clark, moreover, as Albert's brother, Ernest, was not so completely a provincial German prig, Werner Bateman's portrayal of Albert would lack the all-important sympathy of the audience. Disraeli, Lord Conyngham, the Archbishop of Canterbury, Lord Melbourne, and the gay Lady Jane are some of those who have their brief but impressive moments...
