...OPEN GOLF TOURNAMENT (ABC, 5-6:30 p.m.). America's most prestigious golf tourney, live from Springfield, N.J.'s Baltusrol Golf Club. Billy Casper, the 1966 winner, defends against 149 challengers-including at least six former Open champions. Final round at 5 p.m. on Sunday...
Perhaps the most flagrant case is the Harvard-Radcliffe Music Club. Considering the near-universal interest and participation in musical activity at Harvard, there is really no need for an organization with as catholic pretensions as a title like that would indicate. At this point, the Music Club is little more than the administrative arm of the Bach Society Orchestra.

The more ambitions these projects become, the more time, money and professional assistance are necessary to carry them off. Sometimes one of these works is lucky enough to get the intensive study and careful preparation is deserves, as in the case of Figaro. Occasionally, however, rehearsal...
...Participation in musical activities is immense, and most of it is sincere and wholly admirable. Enthusiasm and native musicality are hardly ever lacking, and programs often exhibit an ingenuity and esprit that would be hard to find elsewhere. Leverett's Fall Bach and the Beatles production and the Music Club's all-Ives concert are prime examples of music here at its intelligent best...
