...have any Beanpot memories I really cherish," Nilan says, shifting conversation toward some of his other collegiate performances. But when he speaks of the whole tournament, beyond his own record in it, the West Roxbury native voices feelings for it that echo Silk's: "The Beanpot itself is a great tournament. I feel it's the greatest one in the country, with all its tradition and everything." And, like Silk, he says he grew up eagerly awaiting the day he would get to skate out on the Garden...

Rather, they were spoken by Jimmy Carter, almost two years ago to the day, when he levied economic sanctions against the Soviet Union for its invasion of Afghanistan. Although Carter in effect cut nearly all U.S. economic and political ties to the Soviet Union, Reagan lashed out at his predecessor during the presidential campaign for failing to respond aggressively enough to the Soviets: if elected, Reagan promised...
