Less advanced instructions will be doled out to the Freshmen showing the efficacy of dodging the singles that bask beneath the arches. How to break a rudder rope and not get it tangled with the bow, how to get into a shell after a crew has pushed off, without adopting the woeful methods of Buster Keaton, and how to steer a course nor'nor' east by nor' through the murky haze of the basin will be considered in every detail. The hardest feat to master, that of coxing two miles in a tight race and keeping the remnants of vocal...

Auburn, Bow, and Plympton Streets, would be taken over by the University to serve as a dining hall of the "Gold Coast House" in the development of the House plan.

The lifeboat stood off 50 feet, imperiled by wash from the listing vessel, and took off 32 men, with Capt. Favaloro last. Some of the men had prepared knives and poison to commit suicide. They were starved, half-naked, half-crazy. Capt. Fried and Officer Manning got them all aboard the America...
...tall, hulking man walked on to the stage at Carnegie Hall last week, bent himself into an awkward bow at the piano, and played superbly Bach's Partita No. 2 in C Minor, three Scarlatti sonatas, Schumann's C Major Fantasia and the first book of Debussy preludes.
