With the ball on the Holy Cross 22, Captain Carroll Lowenstein passed to wingback John Tulenko on the ten after a fine fake by end Fred Ravreby had loosened the defense. Tulenko, whose running was one of the best things in the Crimson attack, eluded the secondary and went on to score. Lowenstein's extra point try was partially blocked, leaving the score tied, and the Crusaders puzzled...
Adriatic Frolic. Bevan and his wife found "no fake austerity" during a two-day visit at Tito's summer home on the Adriatic island of Brioni, but found no opulence either.

Thus, last week, the film industry recorded its first no-fake train collision, the supercolossal climax of Paramount's old-time rail saga called The Denver and Rio Grande. The D. & R.G. itself donated the equipment, due for scrapping. Producer Nat Holt staged the wreck as a fictional incident of the railroad's struggle with the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe some 70 years ago, to push the first railway track through Colorado's Royal Gorge. Producer Holt had only one misgiving about his $165,000 real thing: "It looks so good, people will probably think...
