...Author Cheever is in danger of getting bogged down in his talent-lined rut. He promises in the future to drop "all lushes," but The Scarlet Moving Van is the story of the handsome All-America football star who is so frightened by life that he turns to the jug and throws away the stopper.

Harvard pass upset Dartmouth 9-6, preserving Crimson hopes...

There were the in evitable home-grown beauties bearing gifts: olives and peaches in Red Bluff, a jug of water in Dunsmuir, a camellia plant in Sacramento (earlier in the week there were Shoshoni war bonnets in Pocatello). And in Roseville the surprise package was California's Governor Pat Brown, who had joined the trackside audience, clung to the rear-platform railing when the train started off unexpectedly...
