...venture in the slip-stream...
...rarely, if ever, delivered a fight talk. He rarely, if ever, kept up a constant stream of comments from the bench if his squad was playing poorly. He just left it up to the players themselves, and several times, they were unequal to the task, as at Penn, where Harvard never dreamed it could lose. In the Beanpot games, when the Crimson fell asleep for the first period against B.U. and for the whole game with Northeastern. At Princeton. The Crimson needed to be hollered at, degraded, made ashamed of itself. Weiland didn't do it. Neither did captain Chris...

The dramatic conception is finally on a level with the visual sophistication, and the last reels stand as an abstract montage of breakdown and non-communication...

Even the state's potato farmers, whose votes the Republicans hope to win, must accept some blame for the failure of Vahlsing's venture. Exercising typical New England caution, they planted only a fraction of the allotted acreage with sugar beets, thus denying Vahlsing the raw material he needed. Muskie...
