Dave Waters led off the Cornell first with a single and advanced to third on a picture hit-run play with Chico "I'm not obnoxious, just spirited" Bengochea. Both scored when Gary Kaczor and Marlin McPhail followed with singles...
...read as an ordinary novel of character and situation. It is rather a chronicle of events, told through the actions of characters who themselves seldom understand and never control the events: British Major Michael Walker, who directs an Athens underground during the Nazi occupation; U.S. Airman Tommy McPhail, whose plane has been shot down over Greece and who wants to be gotten back to his base; royalists and Communists; patriots and plotters; Greek girls and English girls, and one calculating American number in a Red Cross uniform...

Cliff Battles, great ground-gaining halfback, Hank McPhail, fullback, and Pete Bausch, center, are the only regulars who are certain to answer the opening whistle against the pirates. Steve Hokuf, the crackerjack quarterback from Nebraska, who has been laid up with injuries, will be back in the starting backfield. Gail O'Brien, Steve Sinko, Marne Intrieri, Flavio Tosi and Ernie Concannon, who played bangup football when sent into the fray, are almost certain...
