Fanfare and hoopla--chorus line dancing by team members, stretcher crews carrying away exhausted competitors, and music and one-lines from the bathing suit-clad Harvard band--dominated the atmosphere at Blodgett Pool Saturday, overshadowing some fine individual swimming performances and turning a potentially dull 71-42 Crimson romp over Army into something of an interesting spectator event...

He distilled the essence of Romantic ballet--a series of dreamy reveries suffused with moonlight and white-clad sylphs floating to the music of Chopin. We might be witnessing the animation of an 1840s watercolor, so fluent is Fokine in his chosen language...
