Against La Salle, a weaker opponent, the Crimson often seemed to have the game in the bag. With 14:58 left in the second half and Harvard up 10, Kelley made a beautiful play. On a pass from Sturdy, she swished a hook shot from the baseline that knotted the score...
Going to an A.R.T show always brings with it a certain air of the carnivalesque. Artistic Director Robert Brustein has assembled an astonishingly innovative team of theater technicians, and they're usually over-eager to flex their muscles. Ivanov is certainly not without its own bag of tricks. But Yeremin never lets these tricks develop into a full-fledged side-show. And how could they?

"Last week, two Cubans were here for the regatta, and they left me with two tokens, so to speak, of their country. I've smoked one and am saving the other, but I don't know for how long." He shook his head, looked at the cigar closely as if it were something to reckon with, and exclaims, "Whooo." The difference between a good cigar and a bad cigar is spitting, Billy explains...
