Quarter backing Weak Item: that quarter backing for the Crimson is either inept or too deep for the average man to understand. Saturday Kenny O'Donnell, who had already missed with two point blank range tosses, elected to throw another on his own 34 with third down and less than a yard to go. The pass went into the small of Sam Adams back...
...month after the picture monthly New World proposed political union of the U.S. and Canada (TIME, Oct. 13), another Canadian voice sang a different song. The U.S., wrote Journalist Leslie Roberts (in a series of articles to be syndicated next week in Canadian and U.S. newspapers), is an inept, conceited, selfish country, drunk with power.

...Japan he was enthusiastic. Baldwin, who for 30 years has defended the rights off revolutionaries of all shades, called Soldier MacArthur's occupation of Japan "the greatest revolution I have ever seen." About Korea he was much less hopeful. There, a lack of U.S. policy, an inept military government and factionalism among Korean politicians has produced a "reign of terror." Japan, the former enemy, was like a "liberated country," while Korea had all the earmarks of a conquered country...
