...thinclads will receive their first test April 3 during a training excursion to Baptist College (S.C.). Baptist has a 9.6, 9.7 and a 9.9 second 100 yd. dash contingent, as well as three sub-50 second quarter milers so the Crimson won't be in for a joy ride. Owing to the late opening of the Harvard track season, the Crimson will definitely be at the disadvantage. "Baptist will be in about the middle of the season and we won't be in their kind of shape," Hunt said last week. "We could take our lumps in some...
Shipler contends that his story was not written to dash these hopes: "I'm not an advocate of anything. It's a cliché, but the reporter's function is to observe and report. The story took shape only after a lot of legwork." Shipler also has his boss's support. When Times Managing Editor A.M.

Probably not since the days of the ancient Greeks have so many exposed so much to so many.

Watching from his front porch, the president of Virginia's elegant Sweet Briar College gallantly applauded as 50 of his coeds sprinted by adorned only in their class years, lipsticked on in an approximate license-plate position. On busy U.S. Route 1, traffic was brought to a cheerful standstill by 533 University of Maryland students chain-dancing au naturel. With astonishing swiftness, streaking, the art of the point-to-point dash in the buff, has burgeoned into...
Well, first of all, Princeton had a home pool advantage, replete with a group of 75 streakers who shocked and delighted Friday night's crowd with a dash twice around the pool deck, base drum and all. Second, it had Billy Heinz to do some fancy diving. Third, it edged Harvard in the final 400-yd. free relay showdown to win the meet...
