...about Tufts? All Shepard knows about the visitors from Medford is what Walt McCurdy has told him. McCurdy, a member of last year's team, played with a Business School outfit that lost to the Jumbos in an unofficial scrimmage. Coach Fred Ellis likes to play a wild and fast game. His team is about the same as Shepard's heightwise (the Smith-Rockwell-Prior front line averages 6 ft. 5 in.) and his best man is Perry, a dead set shot who is also very fast...

...inference was so obvious that Dr. Diamond and his colleagues have not dared to use a man's blood since. Of 45 later cases given the blood of female donors, only one was lost, and that child was almost dead at birth. Other children's hospitals have switched to female donors for this type of exchange transfusion and are building up higher columns of hopeful figures. Dr. Diamond, though he still has no idea what the protective substance in a woman's blood may be, is looking for ways to use it in other children...
