...five losses make clear, it hasn't been all smooth sailing for the Crimson. The team has had chronic difficulties curiously similar to those of the men's team: great passing and playmaking, but weak or not enough shooting. (Maybe the similarities come from the two coaches' watching each other on opposing teams in the late 1950s, when men's coach Billy Cleary played varsity at Harvard, and Dooley played for B.U.: more on that in another column...
...Terrier defensive corps is balanced and big. Smooth junior Jerry August and soph T.J. Connolly (2-9-11) make up the top blueline duo. The "Brook-line," manned by George Klapes and 6-ft., 3-in., 196-lb. Bruce Milton (3-15-18), both natives of that Boston 'burb, forms the second pairing.

Though AT&T officials have argued for years that the Justice Department's assiduous efforts to break up their company would imperil the smooth and efficient functioning of the entire system, the claim has never had much validity. Nearly 20% of the nation's telephone subscribers are served by independently owned and operated companies that are not part of the Bell System, yet the quality of their service is virtually identical. Having now shaken hands with the Government on a divestiture plan that could bring enormous benefits to AT&T, Ma Bell must see to it that such...
