a way to commit Viola Williams,

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Oct. 20.
A grim Harvard football team
that did everything the hard way
broke a f1ve-game losing streak
by grinding out a 22-14 victory
over Holy Cross today before a
paltry 10000 at the stadium.
And while gaining a fourth
straight win over the Holy Cross
Crusaders, the Crimson subjected
those woeful performers to their
sixth consecutive setback of the
season.
AS soon as the two much abused
teams got under way it became
apparent that Harvard was going
to hold sway. It took the opening
kickoff and. after almost nine
minutes and 10 plays, Fullback
Johnny West banged three yards
for touchdown to end-a 7O-yard
drive.
Punt Opens Way.
Chuck Rockies 6O-yard punt,
which rolled out on Holy Cross
f1ve-yard line. paved the way for
Harvard's second counter after
the Crimson had fallen behind,

plays, Roche scored from 16 yards

Matrango passed to End Tom

The other Holy Cross touch
down came after Harvard had
scored twice. The shifty Johnny
Turco put the Crusaders back into
the contention by returning a
Roche punt AZ yards to Harvard's
IL and. four plays later, Mel Mas
succo banged over from the four
yard line.
With about two minutes to 90,
Harvard added its last three points
on 12-yard field goal that Walsh
booted after a drive from its own
IL flzzled out on Holy Cross five.

is it! I've hit the jackpot! One in
fifty! I have been turned into an
unborn Jew! No feet, no hands, no
body, no nose, no nothing"
In this realization Abe was a
happy man. Now he would be &C
cepted everywhere in Florida. If
YOU never were born nobody can
hold anything against you. All the
troubles of a Jew were due to his
having been born that way. Now
he could tell them all to go to
hell. 1t was all matter OF birth
and since he was now forrnless,
unborn Jew they couldn't say a
word against him i'll any Florida
hotel.
He could laugh at Morris with
whom he had been speaking just
few minutes ago. Morris was
hunting for him all around "Abe!
Abe! What's become of you, Abe?
Where are you?"
Abe went his way. He should
worry about Morris! Thank good
ness that as an unborn Jew he was
through with Morris. Abe had
always felt that if it weren't for
other Jews it would be all right
with him. He said it was other
Jews who made all the trouble.
1t was because of them that the
cross-eyed man looked at him that
way Now as an unborn Jew he
wouldn't have to be bothered with
other Jews.
When Bill Golding had gone this
far with the story, said: so Abe
at last was fearless Jew. You
know, Bill, that looks like the way
out for all frightened Jews: Just
to unborn themselves, like Abe did
by wishing. It's a big idea.
But Abe wasn't a contented man
very long," Bill replied.

went up the avenue. He had always
been a Jew who liked to hear HIM

i'll town knew that when Abe got
into a meeting there would be no
end of talk and nothing would be
settled. Abe liked to make long
speeches. Meetings were always
stretched out to midnight when Abe
was around. Alb never could get
into agreement with anybody.
(Abe, in short, was like lot
of others you may know
Well, on his invisible way, Abe,
at evening, came to the Jewish Cen
ter of his town. Some kind of
meeting was in progress and the
street was loud with the clamor of
rontending voices. Abe felt stimu-
lated by the sounds. He didn't
know what the meeting inside was
all about but he would have liked
to get into the hot discussion any,
way. It had never mattered to
Abe that he didn't know what he
was talking about.
He started to go in, then sudden
ly realized that he was an unborn
Jew whom nobody could see or
hear. He tried to wish himself
back, to undo the jackpot.
"And did he succeed, Bill?" I
asked.
WELL" Bill replied, that's the
snapper with which the story ends
It's left to the listener to decide
Should Abe be born again? What
do you say?"
Lets keep him unborn, Bill"
