...Bomb. All through the scoreless first half, the Peruvians matched the smoother Argentines with a spirited attack that drew wild cheers from the crowd. Then halfway through the second half, Argentina scored to take a 1-0 lead. At last, six minutes from the end, a Peruvian forward battered his way past an Argentine defender, toed a loose ball in front of the goal, and booted it home for the tying score. A roar like thunder burst from 50,000 throats. Then there was stunned silence in the stands. Referee Angel Eduardo Pazos, a Uruguayan, signaled a foul against Peru...
Things just didn't quite click for the varsity baseball squad yesterday. If their play against Holy Cross had been just a little smoother, or hits a little more strategically timed--or even if the third inning had never existed--it all might have been different...

While most Canadian unions supported the government, the parent S.I.U. decided to keep Banks on the payroll at $20,000 a year.

The New York-headquartered S.I.U., with some 70,000 members and A.F.L.-C.I.O. backing in the dispute, pledged "absolute support for Hal Banks," hinted at the possibility of a "massive blockade" of Canadian...
Gary Berger's fifteen-piece big band, which played first, showed how much it has improved. At last year's Quincy-Holmes jazz concert, the Berger band was hesitant and restrained. Now its voice no longer cracks, and its sound is bigger, smoother and surer. Also, the band has developed a group of soloists who can play in front of a big ensemble and still not sound thin and tremulous. Sam Saltostall's humorous trombone and the vigorous saxophones of Watanabe and Errol Burke provided some fine solo work...
Frances Gitter as Zenocrate starts slowly, making no effort to smooth the queen's sudden transformation from hatred of Tamburlaine to love for him. This particular roughness is largely Marlowe's fault; as the play moves along, Miss Gitter's acting gets smoother. In her death scene, the production reaches its climax. Stone's outbursts of emotion and Miss Gitter's lovely reading are supplemented by some dazzling work with the lighting by David Levine...
