...three years U.S. oil companies (among them Gulf, Jersey Standard, Socony-Vacuum, Caltex) have been urging the Italians to modify their restrictive 1927 mining law, passed under the Fascists. The companies hoped for the prevailing 50-50 split of profits after taxes -the successful formula in Saudi Arabia and booming Venezuela. They also wanted the opportunity to compete on an equal basis with E.N.I., the government's oil monopoly, a swiftly growing octopus directed by a smart and aggressive apostle of state socialism named Enrico Mattei...
...lack of undergraduate vigor at Yale became only too clear last year in the Daily's weak-kneed failure to publish on Saturdays.

There were vivid contrasts between the chasm of the Grand Canyon and the topless towers of Rockefeller Center, the swaying wheat fields of Nebraska and the money-conscious hubbub of the Texas State Fair, an underwater ballet from Florida and the overwater speed trials of Donald Campbell...
...Yardlings it is not Yale who presents the problem this afternoon, but the Tigers from New Jersey, who are unbeaten in two meets. Princeton has three top-fight runners who will strongly contest the lead with the freshmen. With the loss of Captain Dyke Benjamin, the freshmen will be hard put to beat the Tiger harriers...
