...strike the first blow. Replied the President: "No." But then the President, too, added a qualification. Said he: "The right of self-preservation is just as instinctive and natural for a nation as it is for the individual. Therefore, if we know we are at any moment under a threat of attack, as would be evidenced by missiles or planes coming in our direction, then we have to act just as rapidly as possible, humanly possible, to defend ourselves." And although the declaration of war is a congressional function, that there could might be "put "certain your life or circumstances...
There would have been no threat to peace in Europe this year if Nikita Khrushchev had not abruptly and without warning proclaimed last Nov. 27 that he wanted the Western Allies to get out of Berlin within six months. Since then, in a stupefying whirl of fighting words and friendly asides, he has raised and lowered the cold war temperature at will.

Foster remains as the varsity's top threat--probably the only threat--in the 177-lb. division...
...almost uniformly bleak. Dave Skeels, at 123, for example, faces a field that includes at least three men who have already defeated him this season. John Watkins, down to weight at 130, is likely to make a good showing and must be considered the Crimson's second best threat, although he is up against some rough opposition. Carl Kludt, who wrestled at 130 all year, moves up to 137, but will probably be too light and inexperienced to advance in the tournament...
