...whether the couple had been sexually intimate before. Are we to assume that once a woman sleeps with someone she is rightfully his thereafter? This attitude is only a more modern version of the one exhibited by those who oppose the criminalization of spousal rape. Alabama Senator Jeremiah Denton couldn't have put this offensive idea more eloquently: "When a man gets married he expects he's going to get a little...
...appeal of the Reagan message has no doubt helped the Southern branch of the class of '80, ultraconservative Republicans with unremarkable first-term records, like Mack Mattingly of Georgia and Jeremiah Denton of Alabama.

Outside linebacker Gavin O'Connor has 11 sacks, and has been tremendous against the run. Inside linebackers Bob Chizmar and Denton Walker lead the team in tackles. This unit is very quick, very aggressive and very experienced. DEFENSIVE SECONDARY: This is the area many consider Harvard's best. Led by senior safety Cecil Cox, who has picked off five passes, the Harvard defensive secondary will have to continue to play well...
