Guard Bob Hastings hit for an 11.5-point average, and played exceptionally at times. Dick Hurley, another guard, assisted especially at the start of the season, before hurting his leg. Bill Schreiber filled in capably as the tenth man, and incidentally led the team in shooting percentage...

...Waves & Cigarettes. Few policyholders have the remotest idea how the Pru figures the premiums they pay on their insurance. One of the great misconceptions is that insurance men simply use a set of standard U.S. mortality tables. But the mortality tables are only a start. Every company has its own constantly changing tables, based on its own experience with policyholders. The Pru keeps close tabs on the card files of each one of its 33.2 million policyholders, watches for any unusual increase in deaths throughout its thousands of classifications. When it finds such an increase, the odds-and the premiums...

Probably the most satisfying event for Crimson fans was the 100 yard freestye, for captain Dyer gained a fitting revenge over Amherst sprinter Bob Keiter, who had beaten him in the 50 the day before. This time Dyer got an excellent start, and the smooth-stroking senior led all the way to win by a body length in the meet-record time of 49.4. Keiter, who was clocked in 50.8, finished half a length ahead of Yale's fading sprint star, Rex Aubrey...
