Apologies to the first company--all but their company commander--for leaving them out of print. Sorry, fellas, but we ran short of spare time a few days ago (Nov. 9th, as we recall). We're sure that Dr. Jekyll, or Hyde, or whatever his name is, can do a much better job anyway. Seriously, Larry, good luck. (You'll need it with a guy like Gow for a company commander). Rinetti! Rinetti! Help, Gow's got the beak again...
...typical of Mikkola-coached teams, Harvard placed four men in a bunch in the 6th, 7th, 8th, and 9th spots. The summary: Harvard 26, W.P.I. 31.

But it has one primitive feature that has rarely been seen in Christian churches since the 9th Century. Its altar is set in the center of the church (see cut), so that the face and hands of the priest offering Mass are visible to his congregation from three sides. The altar of the new cathedral to be built in Britain's bombed-out Coventry after...
...grimacing skull is the capitalist king. The rugged collective farmer is a communist pawn. The aproned worker is a communist king. Last week this chess set and over 30 others went on exhibition at Manhattan's Metropolitan Museum. Many of the pieces, some dating from the 9th Century, were exquisite miniature sculptures in ivory, silver, fine woods. Most of the Metropolitan's chess show was lent by Chess Collector Gustavus A. Pfeiffer, co-author of Chessmen...
