Crimson starter Wally Cook was knocked out in the midst of this rally, which was built around four singles, a walk, and a balk. The last of these misfortunes was charged against Cook's reliever, Dave Kipp; and it provoked some minor objections from coach Norman Shepard. Strolling back to the dugout after a brief conference with the umpires, Shepard received the razz from a group of Naval officers sitting in the stands nearby.

This outburst erased a one-run Tufts lead built up by a walk, stolen base, and single in the first inning. Johnson's only other moment of weakness came in the sixth, when he walked the first two men. A stroke of bad luck filled the bases when, on a ground ball, Harrington's peg to second arrived just too late to force the runner. A fielder's choice and a sacrifice fly then brought in two runs...

Nobody has to move a muscle, though it could be dull...

American Motors headquarters is perhaps the most relaxed and informal in Detroit's auto industry. Romney often leaves his modest office (18 ft. by 18 ft.) to drop in on executives down the corridor. When he has anything important to say, he is not above calling them together, sitting down on the back of a chair to give a talk...
