...last two we fed dozens of juncos, chickadees, white-crowned sparrows and the like. And up here at the courthouse, I fed other dozens on snowy days. This year there's not a solitary one. I haven't seen or heard a meadowlark in this neighborhood. East of here, across the divide, the bird population has always been ten times-at least visibly-what it is on this side. On May 18th, I drove over there. Not a single horned lark, sage, field or song sparrow, nor a solitary pippet. Driving on above Alder, I stopped...
...Rumania's deep disputes with the Soviet Union. As a result, the congress turned into an extraordinary confrontation between Rumania's policy of forming ties with the West and Moscow's rigid Brezhnev Doctrine that insists on obedience and conformity among the Soviet Union's East Bloc neighbors...

Senior Ray Hornblower, Gatto's shifty running mate last year, may team with sophomore Steve Harrison, a hard-running halfback who scored 48 points for the freshmen last fall, to form one of the most dangerous pairs in the East. Senior lettermen John Ballantyne and Jim Reynolds, who confirmed their quality with fine second-half performances as juniors, are definitely capable of strong backup support, and juniors Richie Szaro, Scotty Guild, Skip Vaccarello, are all talented performers, Szaro, one of the most heralded prospects in Harvard history two seasons...
