...hour is Boynton. Sports Information director John Davis set the stage: "Boyaton will face hitting against Harvard like he's never faced before. Why up in Skowhegan the only experience he ever got was pitching potatoes in the barn. His breaking stuff will have to be working, because the Crimson is going to learn to time his fast stuff...

Even liberal Americans may want to set firmer limits on what their daughters-and sons-will be able...
...feel sorry for myself? Hadn't I just had the chance to eat chicken and hot apple pies at the Red Barn and send postcards of Syracuse to several friends, including my dog? Certainly. And who are the five Harvard guys in the car they've driven to Syracuse to feel cheated because the hockey team played five lousy periods...
