Overlooked behind winner Carl Shine of Penn in the shot put was the Crimson's Hank Abbot, (pictured above, right), who broke up a possible one-two Quaker sweep by throwing the 16-1b. ball 52 ft., 3 in. for a new University record. John Bronstein, Stan Doten, and John deKiewiet took ten discus points...
...field events, however, may decide the meet. The Crimson's Jim Doty should take the hammer throw over Bill O'Connor of Cornell, and teammate Stan Doten could give the varsity a one-two sweep. In the shot, Penn's Carl Shine, the Heptagonal winner, and Dave Sikarskie, who threw 51 ft., 7 in. last week in the Penn Relays, make a formidable and virtually unbeatable twosome...
...sooner had New York's Samuel I. Newhouse added the St. Louis Globe-Democrat to his chain in 1955 than he began trying to put a new shine on the 103-year-old daily.

Wodehouse heroes are often golfers, but they play...
...performance of the nine bars which were to be the Scherzo of the Schubert Unfinished Symphony. The first two movements were given a measured, careful reading which was typical of the whole performance. The concert opened with Corelli's Concerto Grosso Op.6, No.1, giving the strings a chance to shine, followed by a gracious but strong Beethoven 8th Symphony. The closing number, Rimsky-Korsakov's Russian Easter Overture called upon the sonority and balanced ensemble work which is perhaps the orchestra's greatest asset...
