...yesterday that his backcourt combination of Sue "Big Boo Yoo-Hoo" Kinsley and Dale "But Don't You Dare Call Me Frail" Russakoff would run Steiner and Mass Hall hack Chuck Daly off the floor. Up front, where it counts, the Crime plans to go with Bob "Daddy D" Decherd and Leapin Liz Samuels, a high school teammate of former Marquette great. Bob Lackey...
...FIRST CENTURY ends, Decherd's Board, which master-minded the Centennial celebrations, prepares to retire. Daniel Swanson '74, is already prepared to take over the business of running the paper, as soon as the last murmurs of the festival fade away. The people who made the ceremonies possible--Andrew P.

Jim Fallows was president of The Crimson in 1969-70. When I was comping fall of freshman year I remember being in awe of him at the time, (laughter). I still have a little bit, you may understand why when I tell you a little about him. The story goes, I'm not sure whether it's true or not, that when Jim came to The Crimson...
