...accolades went to the Yankees' burly Turley, who had a hand in every one of the last three-in-a-row victories-winning one singlehanded, getting the last out in another, saving the final game with a spectacular 6| innings of two-hit relief pitching. Hard-bitten Rightfielder Hank Bauer led the Yankees at bat with a .323 average and four home runs. But the man Milwaukee will remember most vividly was a catcher-outfielder, Elston Gene Howard...
Guard Terry Lenzner darted into the Lions' backfield to recover a fumble on the home team's 23 yard line, and three plays later another lineman set up the Crimson's first score. An erratic pass by Ravenel bounced off receiver Hank Keohane's shoulder, and was grabbed on the fly by center Pete Eliades, who ran it to the one foot line. Ravenel scored on a sneak in the next play...
Aging ( 37 ) Lefthander Spahn, an Oklahoma cattle breeder in his spare time and winner of 246 games in a 14-year major-league career, might have been beaten in the opening game if the Yankees had not conspired so efficiently to beat themselves.

An employee of the show, said Snodgrass who refused to identify the culprit, coached him in the proper gestures of hesitation in the isolation booth, paid to have his teeth cleaned for the bright TV lights and later begged him not to squeal...
...varsity kept up with Cornell through the first half, as Ravenel, sent in by coach John Yovicsin in an attempt to stop the Big Red's advances, guided the team expertly from its own 31-yard line to score in 12 plays, with Ravenel passing to Hank Keohane for the score (shown at left) at 13:05 of the second quarter...
