...think it is particularly important that students at Harvard let it be known that this kind of incivility--a throwback to the incendiary student behavior of the late 1960s--is not to be tolerated. Black students at Harvard have. I believe, a special obligation to shake off the chip on their shoulders on matters associated with the new black presence at white colleges and make it clear that the black presence here will not longer be defamed by the kind of behavior that a small clique of black students has meted out to Professor Eileen Southern...
...blew up on the front nine with a 41 before the clubhouse turn. He strung together bogeys at the start and smothered a drive into the tree-canopied rough along the seventh. He fluffed his second shot into a bunker and knocked his chip over the green for a double bogey. Vik turned things around from the twelfth hole on, after exploding from a sand to within three feet...
Rivals promptly began lining up to chip away at Xerox's 70% chunk of the U.S. office-copier market. IBM last month introduced a third line of copiers. Minnesota Mining & Manufacturing Co. is planning a massive sales effort for its new plain-paper VHS copiers.

"Phil has been known to take a drink from time to time. If he does half as much for Herradura as he's done for Jack Daniel's over...
However, the union is not as healthy as it seemed in 1972. Chip Yablonski has left the UMWA for private practice without giving any reasons. Miller, though he won a sizeable increase in wages and benefits in 1974, may not be able to hold the rank-and-file in line, if the August, 1975 wildcat strike is any indication. The May, 1976 West Virginia Democratic gubernatorial primary threatens to split the union's political power. Miller has a wellknown affection for Jay Rockefeller, an affection the membership does not appear to share, as they buried Rockefeller in his first race...
