Bill Bingham did discontinue the payment of athletes for waiting on tables at the Varsity Club, but the present hours and return are hardly as grim as Egan portrays. During the season needy members of athletic squads wait on the training tables for one hour at lunch and dinner six days a week. In return for 12 hours of work (two hours per day), the waiters are given all their meals including breakfast free, gratis etc., or the equivalent of $10 worth of House food...
...second production of the season, Alan Gray Holmes' stock company of Boston is hitting the pace. With Erford Gage as its guiding genius, the company has put on a rousing production of Kaufman-Ferber's play, "The Royal Family." By taking the cream of the dramatic crop in the past decade, Mr. Holmes has made a wise move, for the pep of the script carries the play along when the cast has an occasional low moment...

Two of them beat their opponents and the third (Duke) had Southern California licked until 18 seconds before the Rose Bowl's final whistle...
This year the Dixie landslide has continued. On the second Saturday of the season, Louisiana State and Alabama overpowered Holy Cross and Fordham-two of the East's most powerful teams.

Every U. S. football fan has heard of Alabama. Its teams have played in the Rose Bowl five times. That it had another potentially great team this season was no surprising news. But to most fans above the Mason-Dixon line, Tennessee has always been considered minor league -just hillbilly stuff. Last year, when the unheralded boys from the Smokies burned up the Southeastern Conference,* won all ten games on their schedule (rolling up 276 points) and then drubbed undefeated Oklahoma, Big Six champion, in the Orange Bowl, even boarding-school girls in New England became aware that Tennessee could...
