...only impulse-the 300 heartbeats a minute of the raucous new rock. This music is rigorously monotonous, a mantra of bully nihilism; the lyrics are surrealist graffiti, spat out indistinctly. Director Spheeris occasionally supplies English subtitles for these messages from a lost world. In interviews she plays the sympathetic den mother to these kids barely out of their teens, and they respond, most of them, with patience and decorum. In assembling these chilling images, Spheeris has followed the music's dictum: start at the climax and run like hell. And in providing a punk primer, she has documented...

The laxwomen lost just one more game--the consolation round of the tournament--and concluded the season with a fourth-place national ranking...
...broadcast. Many alumnae remember being aware of the rise and fall of Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy, but mostly because of his direct attacks on Harvard, and an unusual foray into foreign policy undertaken by the Crimson. McCarthy had gone out of his way to portray the University as a den of Marxist saboteurs during his years at the helm of the Senate Committee on Investigations. In 1955, already censured for his extraordinary red-baiting campaign, he returned to the limelight temporarily as he testified against accused communists in a Boston trial. Levin attended the trial "just to see what...
