Much of the varsity's hope will be placed in the two-mile relay team which will run against Providence, Boston University, and Yale. The latter ran a 7:58 in the Knights of Columbus Meet two weeks ago. Since this is the varsity record for this event, in order to win, the varsity will have to break its own record. Leading off for the varsity will be Ottis Gates, with Ken Wilson, second, and Phil Williams, third. Jim Cairns will anchor in this event...

During the fortnight's balloting, other city business was at a standstill. For Cambridge's traditionally dilatory Council, however, the election was consummated in a remarkably short time. Two years ago, it took 167 ballots before another political deal, between CCA-endorsed councillors and John J. Foley, put the latter into office. Even this did not constitute the highpoint of Council deadlock: in 1948, the Council dallied into mid-April before Michael J. Neville emerged as mayor From the smoke-filled Council chamber. During those four months, no other City business was considered...
