...they should win at Princeton; even Mikkola is pretty confident--"if they'll all just click," he says. Yale and Princeton are good, for the Elis have been winning consistently, and the Tigers, while losing to the strong Army and Navy teams, are a potentially powerful group. But Harvard is different. On paper, from last year's records, the Crimson should be weak. Their undefeated record shows how Jaako has built that team...

...experiments followed the same basic pattern: one group of rabbits was immunized with Type I antipneumococcus serum,* then half the group was stupefied with large doses of ethyl alcohol (or ether) that kept them under from three to 30 hours.

Then she taught him to walk up and touch the jump with his breast to judge its height, canter down and turn, settle into his old, familiar stride again. Soon she had him doing high hurdles...

...story of Five of a Kind is by no means inexcusable. The cinema struggle to fit such curiosities into a plausible narrative always includes Jean Hersholt, as Dr. Luke, and John Qualen in a somewhat libelous interpretation of the squintuplets' father. Five of a Kind winds this amorphous group into a tangled web of rivalry and romance between two ill-mannered newspaper and radio commentators (Claire Trevor and Cesar Romero). Best shot: all five Dionnes sneering at kindly Actor Hersholt...
