...missed his chance with King because she was recovering from a knee injury received while practicing in a recent tournament. Instead, he gallantly served as chauffeur and manservant, lugging Billie Jean's weights around for her so she could keep up with her leg-strengthening exercises. No male chauvinist, Witteman boldly predicts that "Billie will beat the daylights out of Riggs." But he confesses that "when Riggs offered me 3-2 odds on a $1,000 side bet during an interview last week, I shut up rather than...
...Cambridge Debate on Women's Liberation. This forum was held in England with members of the Cambridge bridge Union Debating Society watching and baiting the two contenders: William F.

Three years ago I felt practically traumatized before the picture of Dustin Hoffman in "Straw Dogs" wreaking bloody havoc on the men who had raped his wife when she asked for it. To me, Hoffman...
...Steiner, where did the money come from for the roses?" "Those things have a way of taking care of themselves." What this reveals about the Bok Administration is that a slush fund exists, guised in the legitimacy of the Harvard budget, for the continuation of Harvard's male chauvinist tradition. We condemn the existence of this alleged fund and demand that the Jox eliminate it immediately...
