Last winter, the Crimson wound up on the bottom rung of the EIBL ladder. That was last winter. The current 16-man squad has more speed and play-making ability plus last year's 20-points-a-game freshman captain Ed Smith. "It's the best overall team we've had in the three years I've been here," Coach Barclay reports. "There are no space-fillers. All 16 men can go out on the court and play basketball...
Perk Up. The ailing domestic airlines perked up a bit. In the twelve months which ended June 30, reported CAB, the 16 domestic carriers had trimmed their losses from $22,435,489 in 1947 to $15,494,310. In the profitable (spring) second quarter, they had rung up a $3,262,837 net v. $2,754,724 last year. As usual, Eastern Air Lines, Inc. was the healthiest; and last week it reported a nine-month net of $762,578 v. $409,809 in the 1947 period...

Its deep reds and browns, applied in thick gobs laid on with a knife and then overlaid with transparent glazes, had an ember-like glow...
...Army series is no exception to this rule, since Harvard still holds a 16 to 10 record over the Cadets. It is only fair to point out, however, that 13 of the wins were rung up between 1895 and 1910. Not only did Harvard take every one of the games played in that period; but it limited the Black Knights of 6 points while amassing 144 in the process themselves...
