...argument that the scene is the highest degree of athletics. It is a skill, and a highly-refined one. There is more that goes into good Boogie than goes into a wishbone option. And as anyone that has lived through an all-night oldies trip can attest, it's physicality in its purest form. A night at Charley's Place or any such beer-room dive supplying The Golden Sound, will show that it's more workout than a two-hour trip...

...commonly known that, proportionally, women's average SAT scores tend to be higher than men's scores. Not only did a Yale trustee attest to this fact, he bluntly commented that women are simply more mature physically and mentally at age 17 than men are. If so, the students believe that for Yale to admit the most qualified students, it must enable its admissions office to choose sex-blind so that the qualified women, many of whom, at present, do not even apply because of the high male-female ration, can be accepted in parity with equally qualified...

...hard to believe she had ever borne anything so young and vital as Kitty. The mother told me how she had once found and entire box of Lyons tea-cakes--"and not touched, not even opened, mind you"--on her way to visit Kitty. She called Kitty over to attest to how good the tea-cakes had been, and Kitty bounded over smiling good-naturedly. "They were just a bit stale, but awfully good." she said.
