Largely because of the cup rules about the procurement of cloth, design and sail-cutting talent, this year's series, like so many in the past, was anything but the dramatic duel of titans, the mystic mano a mano on the deep that sailors dream of and the New York Yacht Club ritually invokes. The outcome has been virtually certain since the first leg of the first race, when it was discovered that Australia-mainly because of the poor cut of her jibs-could neither point as high nor go as fast to windward as Courageous...

...development staff will also have to determine how broad a scope the drive will have, i.e., whether it would include only the Faculty or whether all programs dealing with public policy--the Kennedy School of Government, the Graduate School of Design, the Graduate Schools of Education and perhaps the School of Public Health--will be included. And the Office still has to find someone to head the drive--Robert Stone Jr. '45, a member of the Corporation, is one name being dropped but sources say he may have already rejected a tentative offer...
