...backfield as powerful as today's played for a Bruin team. That was on the "Iron-Man" team of 1926. The four starting backs will be McLaughry at quarter, Captain Atwell at left half, O'Leary right half and Hall at full. "Shine" Ball is a triple threat man, dangerous at all times. Last year the Harvard fans did not see much of this back as he suffered a spinal injury the first play of the game. John O'Leary was out last year with injuries. He has earned the nod from Coach "Tuss" McLaughry because he is a fast...

...Tennessee, Commonwealth & Southern Corp. is trying to escape TVA's punishing competition by selling out. Commonwealth's President Wendell Willkie wants to sell his integrated properties in one batch; TVA Director David Lilienthal wants to buy them piecemeal, using the threat of municipal competition with lower power rates to get his way. Thus the Electric Power Board of Chattanooga offered to buy the Chattanooga property of Mr. Willkie's Tennessee Electric Power Co., threatened to build its own plant unless he agreed. Last week, in a long letter to the board, Mr. Willkie deftly left the matter...
