...Holy Cross coach, Jack Barry, who played for Connie Mack's Athletics and managed the Red Sox in 1917, last night bewailed the fact that four of his stars are ineligible to compete this year because they have signed contracts with major league clubs. As a result, Barry has had to construct a team largely out of unproven sophomores, who so far have not shown any great ability. His two remaining seniors, pitchers Bob DeFino and Jim Perina, are both excellent players. However, Barry has slated George Malonowski to hurl today. A sophomore, he may provide the Crimson with...

He had not remitted $60,850 in withholding taxes, charged the tax collectors, or $1,042,355 in corporation, social security, and unemployment benefit taxes. Mack himself was slapped with claims for $132,240 in individual taxes. Padlocking a business in a "jeopardy assessment" is a rare step for the IRS, but the revenuers had failed to get enough tax money from Slenderella after two years of negotiations, decided to seize the assets while they were...
...Tati's tribute to early filmland farce, which differed generally from the modern product because it was not altogether unconscious, was apt as well as flattering. Some Like It Hot, unlike most recent domestic attempts, follows the tradition of Mack Sennett and Charlie Chaplin that Tati revered. It's a welcome arrival on the local scene...
