Spain. In his initial report, Secretary General Trygve Lie bluntly said he hoped that U.N. would "find ways and means by which liberty . . . may be restored in Spain." The Russians were obviously pleased, and no other important delegation hurried to object. Argentina's Jose Arce obliquely defended Franco by urging caution against "any downfall in the old-established human societies and centers of culture...
Cyrano de Bergerac (translated from the French of Edmond Rostand by Brian Hooker; produced by Jose Ferrer) drops in on each new generation-Walter Hampden accompanied it in the '20s-as a reminder that high romance once lived in the world, or at any rate in the theater.

For his right wing MacDonald will start Bob Smith or Jose del Rio with Gaston Azcarraga opening at the inside right slot. Last week's high scorer, Phil Potter, will again be at center forward, with his running mate, captain Carlos Blanco at left inside. Either Bill Dawson or Arnold Corrigan will be on the left wing...
