...front, where Harvard lost the Colgate game last week, according to Yovio- sin, Columbia is no pushover. All-Ivy tackle Bob Asack and his partnet on the other side, Ed Little, both weigh over 230 pounds. they team with guards Tony Day and Captain Bill Campbell to anchor a bulky and vicious defensive wall. Starting ends will be Walter Congram and Dick Hassan. The Columbia line averages about 21 pounds per man--six pounds more than Harvard...

But David's way is strewn with obstacles, the most formidable of which is his Godfearing, hot-tempered mother, who tries to purge him of lechery through prayer, threats, and maternal tantrums. David's sin is diagnosed by a saintly monk as a "fear of fear." In the end, what finishes David is what eventually brings down most Don Juans-the cumulative weight of complication, subterfuge, blackmail, lies and disorder that results from a lifelong dalliance with too many women, and loyalty to none...
