...some, the choice of campuses was a question of style. "I didn't really think that I was the Vassar type," says Wesleyan Junior Mark Merlis, an exchange student at Smith. He sees himself as "a male Julie Nixon" and thus feels that he will blend easily into the Smith ambience. For others, the choice reflected parental ambitions. Krisanne Warner, a dean's list student at Bucknell last year, reluctantly applied to Yale because her mother called it "the opportunity of the decade." Krisanne won admission to Yale-succeeding where both her father and brother had failed...
...Your unique blend of Biblical history and baseball is refreshing but obviously apocryphal. St. Jude, patron of hopeless cases, is more likely to show an avid interest in the Mets. On that great come-and-get-it-day, you will find that your "little team that can"-couldn't! Blessed are the Chicago Cubs for they shall inherit the East...

Born over the warm seas of the Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico, these large cyclonic systems result from a peculiar blend of heat, winds, atmospheric pressure and moisture.

Only one out of four hit the U.S. They are ordinary enough so that they are systematically named, always after women-Beulah...
...pioneers like the Beatles, the Rolling Stones and Jefferson Airplane developed a distinctive, cohesive style by playing together in obscurity before they reached stardom. By contrast, the new Supergroups bring together mature musicians with different traditions and personal tastes who are capable of creating what Winwood calls "the great blend in music." "It's all coming together -blues, jazz, folk, pop, rock, everything," he says. The prospects are fascinating. If the trend keeps up, the ultimate Supergroup might one day consist of virtuosos on the sitar, five-string banjo and an electronic Moog, with an ex-Beatle thrown...
