...sweeping revolution; the policy was exemplified in the appointment of friendly, low-keyed Career Ambassador Philip Bonsai. But a fortnight ago Castro falsely charged that a pamphlet-dropping plane from Florida had really loosed bombs over Havana (TIME, Nov. 2). With that premise, Castro proceeded furiously to whip up feeling against the U.S. Dropping some of its imperturbability, the U.S. last week made reply in a note stiff with such phrases as "serious concern," "shock and amazement." Chilly Session. The protest, which Eisenhower went over "very carefully" before it was delivered in a chilly session at the palace between Ambassador...
...week after absorbing a last-quarter, 26-20 defeat by Columbia, the varsity reared back to whip a strong Green eleven, 28 to 21, in 1956. The next fall, Harvard succumbed to the paralyzing Dartmouth offense led by halfbacks Jim Burke and Jake Crouthamel and lost, 26 to 0. Nevertheless, Crimson adherents could claim a larger victory in 1957--a glorious triumph in the Battle of the Big Drum. It was in that year that a group of Dartmouth students nearly succeeded in hauling away the Band's big brass drum, only to be halted by Band members wielding trumpets...

However, Pieter van der Toorn, a very good lineman, will be at center half, and Drew Mallory, who wrecked the varsity's offense in 1958, will be back at fullback...
Middle-sized U.S. birds, still not so big as the Russians' biggest, will use the reasonably reliable Atlas as their first stage. Highest U.S. hopes are pinned at present on an Atlas-boosted job intended to whip around the moon and transmit a picture of its mysterious backside-a feat considerably more difficult than simply hitting it. Its timing may not be so good as that of Lunik II, which hit the moon just before Khrushchev's arrival in the U.S. (just a lucky break, said Khrushchev). But the U.S. moon shot's target date is early...
