English 7 does look at the major American names, and Howard Mumford Jones's course has a comprehensive syllabus. And there are American authors in Brower's modern poetry course, Chapman's 160 and Guerard's Comp. Lit. But the college just does not have solid coverage of the whole field of American literature.

Tall and rangy (6 ft. 2 in., 185 Ibs.), he banged out drives of 250 yds., canned his putts with ease and never trailed an opponent, including Quarter Finalist Dick Chapman, former U.S. (1940) and British (1951) Amateur champ. "The greens are like billiard tables," chuckled Tommy. "All you have to do is start the ball rolling and it goes right into the hole...
