...book, by Jo Swerling and Abe Burrows, is about a Save-A-Soul Missionary's (Sarah Brown) attempt to convert Broadway's crap-gamesters, Sky, Nathan, and their cohorts, from a life of sin. Sky, always looking for a wager, boasts that he can "get any doll," whereupon Nathan does a slow take in the direction of Sister Sarah, as she sings a processional hymn, "Follow the Fold." "Oh, no...not that'doll'!" exclaims Sky. Of course, Sky and Sarah eventually fall for each other. Mean-while, Sarah's job is jeopardized by her failure to bring in enough lost...
Goalkeeper John Kiernan was throwing himself into his task with heart and soul as he tried to limit the Brown offense to only a few goals. For a while, it looked as if he would succeed. But after eleven minutes of play, Brown's Ramsey swept through the Crimson defense, kicking a goal through Harvard's Andy Berg, Charlie Hirschler and Kiernan.

When, too, will we see buildings named for brave and rebel women such as Helen Keller in the Radcliffe Quad? Is it not time to rediscover use of chisel upon granite, use of hammer upon stone...
...asked by a close friend what made him the most sad in life, supplied this answer: "the hardness of heart of the well-educated." The genteel and reflective scholar in his sunbathed study does not seem to go with words like hardness, coldness, emptiness of love or barrenness of soul. Gandi perhaps had in his mind a less genteel, and more Imperial prototype. Yet there is a brand of unresponsive Love and of Inert Concern which blesses no more, and damages no less, than straight-forward cynicism. Quiet compassion and relaxed (i.e., controllable) self-accusation are no less evil...
