...producer). Considerable fanfare prefaced the appearance of Little Ol' Boy. No less than six reputable producers announced it for production in the past two years. The success of the playwright's The Heavenly Express, presented by a suburban repertory theatre last summer, added to the general bally- hoo. At one point James Cagney was said to have planned to retire temporarily from the films and take a part in Little Ol' Boy. For once, preliminary enthusiasm is justified. Little Ol' Boy has all the earmarks of a theatrical tenstrike...

That is the indictment of Dartmouth and the sisters sufficiently far across the common. Dartmouth, according to the consensus of opinion expressed by its contemporaries is one long Wah-hoo-Wah plus a touching love for the great outdoors. Radcliffe is unutterably Radcliffe. As for Yale--it is a generally accepted fact that the bulldogs are a healthy lot, nicely mediocre, and the backbone of the nation. The psychologists shed no new light on that subject...
