Irreverent Newcomer. For Daugherty has neither the portentous air nor commanding presence of the typical big-time football coach. He is cheerfully irreverent in a profession of solemn ulcer cases, a merry man with an Irishman's gregariousness and a leprechaun's smile. He has known the bitterness of defeat, when in 1954 he inherited a team of Big Ten co-champions and lost six out of nine games. He has known the joy of triumph, when his Spartans last year rolled over Big Ten opposition and into the Rose Bowl to defeat U.C.L.A...

...most important unit in the nation's twelve-district Reserve system. Sproul, president of the New York "Fed" for 15 years, became known as the most powerful of the regional chiefs and a frequent dissenter from the Washington Board's policy.

Jubilee has always been "a two-camera, no-ulcer show," and manages to remain casual despite the recent addition of a third camera...
...tone for the marriage of his daughter Margaret to the New York Times's suave Foreign Deskman E. (for Elbert) Clifton Daniel Jr., 43, a silvery-topped North Carolinian who picked up a faint British accent during six years in the Times's London bureau, developed an ulcer during a shorter (1954-55) stint in Moscow. Father-in-law-to-be Truman was "awful glad" that Cliff Daniel is a Democrat, "but anyone who's Margaret's choice is O.K. with me!" Did Prize Bachelor Daniel bring any musical talent to the musical Trumans? Grinned Margaret...
