...main block to the championship and possibly to an undefeated season will be the excellent Yale varsity. With Sonny Howe holding down the top position, followed by last year's number one man, Charlie Kingsley, the Bulldogs will definitely pose a major threat to Crimson squash hopes...

His Stella (1955) was a box-office smash in Europe. A Girl in Black, quite aside from its merits and demerits as art and entertainment, should give U.S. audiences some sharp new impressions of what life is like in modern Greece...
