...little to help a patient toward recovery, they can at least brighten the ward for a few hours each week. A dozen cheerful faces and a few movements of the "Pastorale" symphony create practically the only breaks in the monotony of the patients' lives. One of the saddest looking women in the ward managed to smile when a volunteer held her hand and asked her, "How can you be so sick and have such warm hands...

...Elis got their second big break. Ravenel went back to pass, and, apparently finding all downfield receivers covered, tossed a backward pass for Tom Boone. Hutcherson (who "just happened to be there," according to Olivar) grabbed the ball in full flight and went all the way untouched. The saddest part was Ravenel, obviously still bothered by his knee trouble, in futile pursuk...

...saddest event of the Eisenhower years has been the decline of the America of Point Four, Korea and the Marshall Plan, into the vague, insubstantial good will of a traveling man from the White House. The time has come to put meaning back into that good will, and substance into the idea of an "area of freedom."

Cornell had based much of its hopes on halfback Marcy Tino (a converted quarterback) and quarterback Dave McKelvey, the nucleus of the legaue's best backfield. But Tino suffered a pre-season knee injury and will not play at all this year, and in the first quarter of the Big Red's opener against Colgate, McKelvey broke an ankle. He too is out for the season. As for Harvard, Charlie Ravenel, the man who has made the Crimson move for the past three years, sprained his right knee against UMass last...

Pressure Cooker. Certain that his three rivals knew of his tremendous rally. Palmer coolly switched to a conservative brand of golf and waited for the pressure to do its work. One by one. Palmer's competitors cracked. Saddest sight of all was the collapse of Hogan. Tied with Palmer at four under par going into the last two holes, Hogan landed in the water on the 1 7th for a bogey. On the 18th, the old mechanical man made a pitiable mechanical mistake: he lifted his head on a putt, topped the ball and suffered a triple-bogey...
