...minute penalty at 6:35 of the first period is memorable because it contained three possible infractions, may be the dirtiest player in the ECAC.

Litchfield played a solid game in every respect and is challenging Scott Sangster as the squad's best defensive defenseman. Brown, 3-2 at Cambridge Brown (2-4-1) 1 1 1-3 Harvard...

One night, appalled at the prospect of another TV dinner and more wasted hours sitting in front of the tube, he runs blindly away and somehow finds himself...
...assembly will also send a letter to the Food Services Department and to several administrators protesting a memorandum requiring Food Services checkers to ask for the bursar's cards of every student--even students they know. Having to show his bursur's card to the checker in his own House is "a royal pain in the neck," Michael J.W. Rennock '81, an assembly member from Eliot House, said last night...
