Rubber Barons. The biggest development of Amazon riches was the rubber boom, which began when Charles Macintosh started making raincoats in 1823. Vulcanization and later the automobile fed the prosperity; output rose to a peak of 42,286 tons in 1912-at prices that hit $3 a lb. In the jungle, the rubber barons enslaved Indians and immigrants, drove them so hard that 300,000 died; a 230-mile railroad, built to carry rubber from Bolivia, cost 70 lives a mile to build. In Manaus, the rubber tycoons built mansions and watched Pavlova dance in a $10 million opera house...
Most of the Crimson forwards are off the injured list and Munro can alternate two good units. The first line is still made up of the team's two scoring leaders: Roger Tuckerman (4 goals), Larry Ekpebu (3 goals), as well as John MacIntosh, John Hedreen, and Keith Lowe...

...aside from the doings on Soldiers Field, the fall was a fairly successful one. The cross country swept to an undefeated season as Pete Reider won the major race of the year against Princeton and Yale. Captain Jim Shue, Ken MacIntosh, Larry Ekpebu, Tommy Bernheim, and Roger Tuckerman formed a consistently improving forward line that finally enabled the varsity soccer team to gain a creditable 6-2-3 record as well as a 4 to 2 win over the Elis. The season also saw the appearance of sophomore Lanny Keyes who may well turn...
