...Young Democrats are selling tickets to the speech in the Coop for $2. If admission revenues fail to reach the $1000 goal, the YD's will "dip into the treasury, Burt L. Ross '65, president of the club, said yesterday...
...Mississippi State: a 20-17 victory over Mississippi, favored (by 10 points) and Bluebonnet Bowl-bound; at Oxford, Miss. Trailing 6-3 at half time (on a 48-yd. field goal by State's Justin Canale), Ole Miss rallied for 14 points in the second half, still lost to its cross-state rival for the first time in 18 years-ever since Johnny Vaught, the nation's winningest major college coach, took over as boss of the Rebels...

In those days football was a mannerly game: teams were expected to punt on first down inside their own 20-yd. line and never, never throw a forward pass. The upstarts from Indiana punted only on fourth down?and passed the Cadets goggle-eyed. In one fantastic flurry. Quarterback Gus Dorais completed 12 in a row. His main target was a balding bandy-legged end named Knute Kenneth Rockne, who at 5 ft. 8 in. and 145 lbs. was probably the smallest man on the field. Army defenders...
