...lectured like an errant schoolboy. Complaining to Foreign Minister Chen Yi, Subandrio was answered in "brutal and arrogant" language. Roused again on his last night in Peking, he was pressured into a joint communiqué promising respect for "proper rights and interests" of local Chinese, then bundled off home...
...their heels. He merely reaffirmed Panama's "titular sovereignty" over the zone (as William Howard Taft had done 50 years before) and promised that zone commissaries would adopt a policy of buying only U.S. or Panamanian products-as soon as "normal conditions" were restored.

But right from the start, Navy drove home its blocks with clean precision, turned loose darting, stubby (5 ft. 8 in., 185 lbs.') Halfback Joe Bellino for three touchdowns. On defense, Navy used four halfbacks to throw an umbrella over Lonesome End Bill Carpenter, put such a rush on sharpshooting Quarterback Joe Caldwell that he consistently missed open receivers. When the slaughter was done, Navy had rolled...
