...horror novel and the 1972 Brian de Palma film of the same title—is widely considered one of the greatest flops in theater history. Instead of Sissy Spacek’s face covered in pig’s blood, the theater audience was treated to Betty Buckley (“Cats”) in red paint, which New York Times reviewer Frank Rich ’71 compared to “strawberry ice-cream topping.” Rich, who is also a Crimson editor, warned theatergoers against attending this “typical musical-theater botch...
...minutes of our best,” Harvard coach Erik Farrar said. Despite playing in foreign waters, the Harvard squad outpaced and outplayed the home-standing Rams. The Crimson struck first, finding the net early in the first quarter. However, back-to-back goals by Rams freshman Ryan Buckley and sophomore Todd Conway gave Fordham the 2-1 advantage. The lead would be short-lived, however. Harvard railed off five unanswered goals over the next two periods, creating a 6-2 advantage at the end of the second half.

As a recent issue of the conservative Campus magazine points out, reporters rediscover the student right every few years, as if it were "very new and very strange." In fact, the movement is very old and very...
...Intercollegiate Studies Institute (ISI) of Wilmington, Del., a 51-year-old group whose first president was Buckley. The institute spends nearly $1 million a year helping students publish conservative newspapers. Its Collegiate Network of papers now includes 85 publications, a record number for the institute. The ISI spent an additional $9 million last year on conservative books, periodicals like Campus and fellowships worth as much as $40,000 for individual students...
