...scoring potential is very high, but its defense, particularly in the beginning of the season, was quite weak. It will still be a slight favorite for tomorrow's game, but as the Crimson's strength also lies in its ability to tally, the contest should be close and high scoring...
...should not be reduced. Indeed the former report emphasizes the need for more aid to under-developed countries which can be of little immediate military value. Such aid would be drastically cut if the agitation of Chambers of Commerce and the National Association of Manufacturers is heeded. Eisenhower's weak stand can hardly protect this item from congressmen whose mail boxes are stuffed to overflowing...

The dancing has its bits of color and movement, but never the slightest distinction.

The confident Crimson supporters were rudely shocked as the Tigers put up a spirited fight, losing only 2 to 1 on a long shot in the third period by John Copeland. The stakes will be even higher tonight when the same two teams face off here...
