...recollection that things have been worse. Riot and rebellion are a student tradition in the Western world; university records from the Middle Ages abound in accounts of pitched battles, rapes and homicides. A proclamation of 1269 denounced the scholars of Paris who "by day and night atrociously wound and slay many, carry off women, ravish virgins, and break into houses...
Last season, counting a 17-game South American tour on behalf of the State Department, St. Joe's won 42 out of 46 games, wound up No. 3 in the nation. Last week, after six games of the 1965-66 season, the Hawks were up to No. 2-and even that seemed like an insult, looking at the records of their rivals. U.C.L.A., picked by most experts to win its third straight N.C.A.A. championship, dropped two games in a row to Duke.

Playing for a team that started out like a lion (with victories over Missouri and Mississippi) and wound up like a lamb (losing to Houston and Archrival Tennesee), Norton completed 113 out of 214 passes for 1,893 ards and eleven touchdowns. He injured a knee in Kentucky's next-to-last game, had to undergo an operation. The bad knee makes Norton a questionable commodity, but he is still "the best...
