...only secure team in the Ivy League should be Princeton. Finishing last a year ago, the Tigers will be hard-pressed to improve that record. Only seven lettermen are returning, including captain Steve Davidson who led the Tigers with eight goals last year. Bonaventure Mbida, the only other experienced player in a sophomore-filled starting eleven, scored Princeton's only goal in the 4-1 loss to Columbia...
Actually, the first of the N.O.'s alternative programs displayed some good insights. At the 1967 convention in Ann Arbor, Gregg Calvert and Carl Davidson proposed their theory of a "New Working Class." They contended that Capitalism had changed in many ways from Marx's day. In the modern industrial system technocrats were far more essential in the industrial process than unskilled workers (an ever diminishing percentage of the work force).

...despite its effectiveness, The Devils seemed episodic, eclectic, and the complex Penderecki (pronounced Pen-der-ete-key) score sometimes trod meekly behind the drama instead of forcefully alongside it. What gave absolutely no grounds for complaint were the performances of Baritone John Rear don and Mezzo-Soprano Joy Davidson. As a sensual priest who is burned at the stake, Reardon in particular gave the production just the sort of personal force it needs...
