...large. Gambril stated to me that he wouldn't allow a known and regular drug user to stay on the team: that it's illegal and a detriment to the team and Harvard. Yet the majority of the team, including some of his stars, at least occasionally smoke dope and a number are into or have been into considerably heavier trips. The upperclassmen report that Benn Merritt and Harold Miroff were beginning to grasp something of the context of drug use here and finding it less horrifying than they had feared.

Captain Mike Cahalan, a gung-ho, short haired, hard working, non-dope smoking swimmer, was talking of an undefeated season.

There is even one sequence--Peter and John sneaking into the proverbial abandoned warehouse to recover the stolen dope--that could be confused with the bland outpourings of the Disney factory. A parody of the Hardy Boys, one member of the premiere audience hollered out, leaving the rest of the audience to wonder if the parody was intended...
