Same as Chemistry. Time after time, Georgia-born Bill Spivey grabbed off Kansas passes intended for Lovellette. Once he stole the ball right out of the Kansan's hands, dribbled the length of the floor to score. By half time, Spivey had 14 points to Lovellette's four and Kentucky led Kansas 28-12. The baffled Lovellette fouled out in the third quarter, after being held to ten points by Spivey's glue-like guarding. Spivey himself had scored 22 points (high for the game). When Lovellette went out, Rupp took out Spivey too ("We wanted their...
...with their big whirring rotors hover over the rugged battlefields, bringing supplies to cut-off units or rescuing the wounded from isolated spots that could not have been reached any other way. One of the men flying the 'copters is Lieut, (j.g.) Charles Jones, a 28-year-old Kansan. Not long ago Lieut. Jones took off from the cruiser Rochester to find and rescue a Corsair fighter pilot who had been shot down over North Korea.

A rock-ribbed, prewar isolationist, he voted for the European Recovery Program, advocated the 48-hour-week and the open shop, never ceased harrying the New and Fair Deals with insistent cries for economy...
...last three years, some Detroit Symphony musicians had been muttering an obbligato behind their music sheets about the musical methods and tastes of their conductor, Karl Krueger, the 55-year-old Kansan who had led the Seattle and Kansas City orchestras out of a musical desert. Reichhold had an answer to that: "Perhaps the American public hasn't learned to appreciate the German school of conducting of which Krueger is a disciple. I like this way of playing music, and it's the kind of music Detroit is going to get." Furthermore, he said: "I think a good...
