Harvard Law School students last night debated the constitutionality of juvenile curfews before Supreme Court Justice David Souter in the annual Ames Moot Court competition. The contest draws some of the country’s prominent legal minds to judge the final round.

I remember it like yesterday because the next morning was the first time in my life I ever had room service. Vada bought breakfast. It was $12.75." His store of figures charms most people but bothers a few. On the last day of Rose's rookie season, Stan Musial scratched a single to each side...
