...better,” Shore said, happy that the entire team benefitted from extra tournament experience. “It’s a great way to start the spring”. Overall, this tournament punished its competitors. The field was peppered with withdrawals and scores in the 90s. No one came within shouting distance of par. “Golf in the wind is not fun,” Mayer said. “Well, it’s fun, but it’s hard.” One month from now men’s golf will...
...scions' friendship has thrived despite some searching tests. They were opposing generals in Australia's rugby-league war of the mid-'90s. While Murdoch was recruiting players to join News Ltd.'s rebel competition known as the Super League, Packer was trying to keep them loyal to the 90-year-old Australian Rugby League.

Even in Serbia, whose citizens feel genuine humiliation over losing Kosovo (which Serb...
...time project grants from the OFA and the UC.According to John Pyper, an Adams non-resident tutor and a local artist in charge of the underground press, the space was first established in the 1950s as a means of publishing left-wing propaganda and protest literature. In the mid-90s, the press had a close relationship with the local Grolier Poetry Book Shop and commissioned several poems from distinguished poets such as Donald Hall ’51. But when Pyper first walked into the press four years ago, he found the space in shambles.Today, the Bow and Arrow Press...
