...this production is Hal March, who is making his legitimate stage debut. Tackling the role in which Paul Douglas scored on Broadway, he proves that he can do more than fire questions at TV contestants in isolation booths. In fact, he gives a smooth, consistent and convincing performance. His only serious lapse is near the close of the first act, where he has a heart-to-heart talk with his son and reminisces about his dead wife. This is hard to pull off, but the writing is so fine that it still emerges as one of the two most memorable...
...Hall. Opening July 7 with Bert Lahr in Visit to a Small Planet, the Summer Theatre will also present James Mason in Mid-Summer (July 14-19); Basil Rathbone and Geraldine Page in Separate Tables (July 21-26); Tonight at 8:30, with Faye Emerson (July 28-Aug. 2); Hal March in A Hole in the Head (Aug. 4-9); Dulcy, with Dody Goodman (Aug. 11-16); and Melvyn Douglas in Strange Partners, a new play by Florence Lowe and Caroline Francke...

...Princeton eleven and had nothing left for the Yale game. The varsity's new coach John Yovicsin, while he did not have the most auspicious season, proved himself as an able coach, when he had the material. Next year should see somewhat of an improvement as Captain Bob Shaunessy, Hal Anderson, and Pete Briggs will give the Crimson one of the stronger lines in the Ivy League while Ron Johanson, Sam Halaby, Dick McLaughlin, and Chet Boulris will form a nucleus of the backfield. The problem, as it has been in the past years, will be to replace two good...
...Coach Hal Ulen's swimming team had its usual frustrating season as it won 9 meets, had an unexpected loss at the hands of Dartmouth, and then had to swim against Yale. It did better than expected in losing only 58 to 28, but for the ninth straight year, the Crimson swimmers found themselves in second place in the East. Ulen did turn out three particularly fine swimmers in Dick Seaton, John Hammond, and Jim Stanley, who will be the nucleus for next year's second place team...
