Lyman is described in the current issue of Sports Illustrated as a "a brilliant but uneven player who has a disconcerting habit of jumping up after he has made a move, as though he suddenly remembered that he had to catch a train...
...broader expression that puts him firmly among top 20th century composers. It is a position he has been promising to occupy ever since his Symphony No. i crashed onto the scene in 1926, when he was 19.

Who then will staff our Sections and provide tutorial instruction...

Bon Heckscher, Pete Milton, Cal Place, Lee Folger, and Charlie MacVeagh used their large repetoire of shots to baffle their opponents. The bottom four matches were even more uneven as Wesleyan's lack of depth became apparent...
