...obvious advantages of the Green--greater height, better team speed, and deeper reserves--do not preclude the possibility of an upset. In both its games this weekend, the varsity showed the hustle that has characterized its play throughout most of the current season, and with a few breaks could well have beaten the superior Cornell team it met on Saturday...

...busy brain of Nikita Khrushchev Chou was significantly silent. In tossing out ideas for all kinds of Soviet-style disarmament plans, Khrushchev proposed an atom-free neutral zone in the Pacific, vaguely defined but seeming to include Red China, Japan, and the U.S. testing areas in the Marshalls.

For all its years as a republic,* the land that struggled so hard for independence is still largely dominated by British ways, has not even bothered to take down the portraits...

Playmates, the obvious suspects, were exonerated. Checking the parents, the doctors found that the girls' mother was a nurse in a small hospital 100 miles away. And this hospital had had an epidemic of resistant staph just before the girls got their abscesses. Tricky test-tube work showed that the mother was carrying the same resistant staph in her nasal passages. She was a "healthy carrier."
