...that proposal seems sure to set off a furious battle in Congress that will test the depth of George Bush's commitment to nuclear power. "Congress is risk averse," says a House staff member. "The public doesn't like nuclear energy, and it doesn't want the right of a public hearing taken away."

Shifting gears again, the Opportunes performed two pop music numbers. Joe Jackson's "Is She Really Going Out With Him?" was staged well, and Ewing sang the lead with poise.

Juniors John Tolmie and Derek Brown and freshman Ian Williams all went undefeated against Navy and West Virginia. The 6'9" Williams, taller than every member of Harvard's basketball team, looked especially impressive with his net play, something he has been steadily improving over the course of the year...
