Winthrop was in tough straights all afternoon. Bob Cameron, high speed specialist of the Puritan offense, got away on a 35 yard run and the only touchdown of the game on a fake reverse. From then on the Gold Coasters took over virtual control of the ball and late in the fourth quarter pushed it deep into Winthrop territory...
Nevertheless, it was the cheap ($700 f.o.b. France), amazingly efficient new Citroën that stole the Paris show. Features: a two-cylinder, air-cooled engine, that is said to get more than 60 miles to the gallon (at an average speed of 38 m.p.h.); front-wheel drive, all-round torsion-bar suspension, a fabric top that rolls up like a windowshade.
