...Senate are up for grabs—Massachusetts and Cambridge voters have only a handful of important choices apart from the marquee gubernatorial race. Senator Edward M. Kennedy ’54-’56 (D-Mass.) is expected to easily win an eighth term over Republican Kenneth Chase, a lawyer and businessman who ran against Rep. Edward J. Markey (D-Mass.) in 2004 and took 21 percent of the vote. A member of the Senate since 1962, Kennedy won 73 percent of the vote in his last election.

Sometimes a scavenger hunt is just a scavenger hunt. That's all it is at many churches, where the frenzied chase to collect trinkets and complete silly tasks is a perennial activity aimed at getting teenagers into their doors.

The Crimson, which finished No. 4 last year with its varsity eight, entered two varsity eights in this year’s competition.

The varsity eight finished with a time of 15:25.77 over the 2.75-mile course, and the second varsity crossed the line shortly...
Focus in the world of women’s crew shifted from the waters of the Charles to the banks of New Jersey yesterday at the Princeton Chase. And for the Radcliffe crew, this proved a turn for the worse. After a strong row last Sunday, the Black and White heavyweights did not find similar success this weekend, with its first varsity boat coming in 16th with a time of 16.53.10 and its second varsity notching a 28th place finish, clocking in at 17.18.74. The two boats were simply not able to attain a high enough stroke rate. While rowing...
