...lead, forced Connecticut to go for two late in the game. Connecticut missed, and Yale had a hair-thin 8-6 victory. ¶ Ohio State's Frank Kremblas succeeded on two pass conversions, found that they made the difference in a 23-20 victory over Southern Methodist, which could complete only one pass in three after touchdowns...

He has mapped the world folk-song families, found surprising links between them. The pinch-voiced, samisen-playing geisha finds an echo in the Spanish mountain-farm laborer thumping a ximbomba drum; "the lonesome, death-ridden American cowboy is a blood cousin to the raga singer in India...
