Princeton fullback Larry Van Pelt played a big part in the win, rushing for 119 yards and two touchdowns, and also scored on a 44-yd. pass from quarterback Bob Holly...

Penn State fans will now remember Jennings for her upset win over their top runner, Kathy Mills, in yesterday's meet. Mills, who has won the Eastern Championship for the past three years, crossed the finish line at 17:11 for second place, and a time that also bettered the old course record...

It has also served as a useful way for Cantabrigians to clearly define the issues facing the city--CCA candidates, for example, are in favor of rent controls, and voters have little to fear...
