...Hollywood, Mickey Mouse, whose birthdays are reckoned from the moment of his conception (in Walt Disney's mind in a drawing room on a westbound train) rather than from his first public appearance (in Steamboat Willie, 1928), turned 21. Father Walt and a few oldtimers honored their hardworking star (who has appeared in more pictures than any other actor in Hollywood*) with a quiet, off-the-lot anniversary dinner...
Just how depleted the Crimson is can be judged from the fact that five of Valpey's key line personnel--two of them first stringers--will not play today. Guard Emil Drvaric, tackle Skip Garvey, and end Walt Coulson are taking medical school exams, while tackle Doug Bradlee and guard Sam Butler are out with injuries. Will Davis will take over Bradlee's tackle position, Dick Guidera spelling him on defense. Jerry Kanter will fill Butler's defensive post in the middle of the line...
...injury scales should be evenly balanced tomorrow. Charley Binder regular Holy Cross halfback, is hors de combat, and first-string center Jim Deffley's action will be limited. As for the Crimson, defensive guard Sam Butler will sit this one out, and reserve line-men Walt Coulson, Emil Drvaric and Skip Garvey may have to spend the afternoon taking a national pre-medical school examination...

Holy Cross varies its power routine with a strong passing attack from quarterback Walt Brennan to ends Tom Kelleher and Jim Dieckelman...

The if hinges on whether pre-meds Emil Drvarie, Walt Coulson, and Skip Garvey can avoid taking an all-day examination scheduled for Saturday. All three are supposed to show up for the tests, which are run by the medical school entrance boards. The afternoon portion is listed for 2 to 5 p.m., at precisely the time the Crimson linemen will be needed at the Stadium...
