...central and southeast Ohio and from Minnesota, should serve to reveal these weaknesses. In both instances, the people contacted in these areas talked primarily and most enthusiastically about recruiting athletes. Sooner or later, they made it clear that they sought students, journalists, and the rest, but they evinced obvious relish only when discussing athletes...
...unashamed hilarity that attends the Bogart festival at the Brattle is indicative that the greatest part of the audience is as ignorant of their escape into adolescent self-satisfaction, as they would be unready to admit that flight. For most, Bogey flicks will happily remain as opportunities to relish vicariously the succession of unachieved sexual encounters of Marlowe/Spade/Bogart or to laugh at the thick ankles popular in a heftier age.

Silence & Whispers. What the resurgent Republicans badly needed was the voice of a leader to give the party cohesion and forward motion. Although his influence and prestige still cast a long shadow over the land, Dwight Eisenhower did not seem to relish the role.

For a time he flirts with Hitlerism, seeking the force that is lacking in effete...
...Mons, a crowd of 15,000 singing first the anticapitalist Internationale, then the anticlerical Down with the Cassocks, filled the city's main square to hear Renard lash out at Eyskens' Loi Unique and shout his creed. With relish Renard pointed out that the strike was costing the capitalist owners of industry a billion francs ($20 million) a day. "Every time you cross off a day on the calendar," he cried, "think, another billion less for them!" Would Renard call off the strike? "A single word!" he shouted. "Persist...
