...captain Bob Rockwood and Tom Coakley have been around for three years and are solid, competent defensemen. Pairing off with the seniors are Curt Bennett, a sophomore billed as the successor to two-time All-American Bob Gaudreau, and junior Steve Wormith, Brown's All-Ivy honorable mention fullback. Bob Wormith and Bennett tallied in the Cornell game...
Convinced he had picked up a forger's scent, Noble made tests to determine the specific gravity of the horse, found it was too low for solid bronze but about right if the statue had a sand core, held in place by iron wire and tacks-which is how French bronze statues in the 1920s were cast. Ordinary X-ray equipment would not penetrate deeply enough to show the interior of the sculpture.

He has consistently supported civil rights measures, the poverty program, and aid to education. He was one of the first public figures to stand up to the Red-baiting tirades of Senator Joseph McCarthy. He started and led the campaign to bring the CIA under closer Congressional scrutiny. And as a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, he has sought a basic reassessment of the country's foreign...
