...stated that Eisenhower "could have let his foreign policy be dictated by those members of his party" who favored the America First or Arsenal of Democracy approach with its comparative isolationism. Dulles' statement that there would be an "agonizing" re-appraisal of American foreign policy if France failed to toe the line, so to speak, in the near future was a compromise attitude. It reflected Eisenhower's desire to consolidate Western strength and was, I feel, entirely justified considering France's delaying tactics on EDC and a European federation. America, the world's strongest nation, has been rejecting its responsibilities...
...weather, and another estimated 20 million were set to watch the game on television in the biggest (134-station) hookup in sports-television history. Cleveland was favored by just three points, the margin of a field goal that might be kicked by Cleveland's famed Tackle Lou ("The Toe") Groza. But Layne & Co. had other ideas. Detroit's huge (average: 235 Ibs.), hard-charging line forced Graham to fumble soon after the opening kickoff. Layne promptly called on an old Texas high-school football mate, Doak Walker, for the Detroit score. Graham, stopped, could only retaliate with...

Bots had Puss in Boots Number Two an' Suck Me Toe, an' Bambina had three. Sugar Shine, Turtle Dove, an' Stumps. An' Bots an' Bambina wus the best of friends, an' the children who wus half brother an' half sister live like real brother and sister without any talk 'bout half or quarter. They live real...
...point went wide and the Crimson edged Colgate, 21 to 20, in the Stadium. If you were down in the Stadium a week ago you saw that things up in New York State haven't improved very much--once again the Red Raiders lost by the fraction of a toe. By this time Lahar had become very unhappy, and because there is the possibility that Colgate may someday play Harvard again, he practiced extra points last Saturday. That Dartmouth happened to be the Colgate opponent didn't help matters much. Lahar used four different men, and got the same result...
