Ince may make All-American this year. The selections haven't been made yet, but there can be no question that he is a prime candidate. Webster made the third team last year, but Ince was not so honored. Some of Johns Hopkins excellent attackmen of a year ago are gone, however, so this should make even more of an opening for Ince.

Patil's professed aim is to "polarize" the catchall Congress Party. "If fellow travelers and Communists are in the majority in the party, then the rest of us must walk out," he says. "If the democrats are in the majority, then the others must walk out or be kicked out." Menon holds much the same view...
...general semantics, Alfred Korzybski. In Korzyb-ski's view, the verb "to be" was a dangerous and frequently misused word that was responsible for much of mankind's semantic difficulties. Going the master one better, Bourland has led a one-man crusade for the adoption of "E-prime" -which is his name for the English language minus...
