...praises PBH for encouraging 60 percent of Harvard undergraduates to volunteer their time; but he didn't do a thing when PBH was forced to cut its budget by 56 percent. Colprep, a PBH tutoring project for local high school students, will be able to sustain its services only if it can raise the $1500 it lost in this year's budget cuts. To whom will Colprep turn for these funds? Not the $4.5 billion-endowed Harvard, but the Boston public schools...
...Democrats are pretty much preaching similar messages; the contest concerns who can sound the most convincing. They all castigate the Reagan Administration for big talk but little action in the war against drugs. All of them threaten to cut off aid to foreign nations that refuse to cooperate in stopping the flow of drugs. All urge more support for the Coast Guard, Customs and the Drug Enforcement Agency.

They insert the arthroscope, a thin telescopic tube, through an incision in the jaw and use tiny instruments to wash out debris, reposition the disk or cut away scar tissue. The operation takes about an hour and leaves a mark no larger than a freckle. Proponents believe the availability of the procedure may increase the percentage of TMJ patients who choose surgery from 10% to as much...
...that may be unprecedented in general-release movies. Another titled woman (Jacqueline Pearce) will rise naked from her bath to lead her assembled guests -- of both sexes -- in a genial discussion of who will accompany her to bed. A rancher (the late Trevor Howard, in his last role) has cut a peephole in his closet so he can spy on women using his guest bathroom. While Broughton is awaiting trial for murder, this same fellow visits him bearing a fine gift box of chocolates in which he has thoughtfully tucked a drug-filled syringe...
