That same day, one of Martin's other roommates, Randall W. Stone '88, was waiting apprehensively to meet the suite's fourth inhabitable Andrew R. Elby '88, who had sent him a letter proclaiming his predilection for acid rock music. In his effort to amuse his new roomates, Elby had also sent Martin a letter depicting himself and his house in stick figures, and had written to Salovaara, saying that because Salovaara lived in Illinois, farther from Cambridge than any of the others, he would be expected to pay all the long distance phone bills...
...since Czar Nicholas wed Alexandra in 1894 have Russians encountered a ruler's wife with such presence, such personality, such promise as a subject of mild jokes and elevated eyebrows as Raisa Gorbachev.

Stockman. Speakes. Regan. Even two Reagan children, Patti and Michael, have written slap-and-yell books about the First Family. And more are on the way. Helene von Damm, once Reagan's personal assistant and later Ambassador to Austria, has reportedly penned something less than a valentine...
...E.D.F. report coincided with a visit to Washington by Canadian Prime Minister Brian Mulroney, who has tried unsuccessfully for years to persuade the Reagan Administration to tackle the acid-rain problem. Mulroney last week called the situation a "rapidly escalating ecological tragedy." Even before his arrival, however, Washington rejected a Canadian proposal that the U.S. limit nitrogen-oxide emissions...
