...someone with a clear sense of direction. Guy Molyneux '81-4 has championed a series of fairly disparate campus movements. From the 1978 torchlight march protesting Harvard's investments in companies that do business in South Africa, to the boycott of a cap and gown manufacturer over a union dispute, to the condemnation of Arnold C. Harberger's appointment as head of the Harvard Institute of International Development, to the formation of the progressive "Coop Group." Molyneux has had a hand in nearly every even vaguely leftist student campaign in his almost five years in Cambridge...

Even the needless pain that some of us endured as the result of too much begin neglect also binds us together.

To the other side of the man is another woman who is banging away on a keyboard. Her red miniskirt and beehive hairdoo stand out. At the back of the stage are two more clean-cut-men--preppy almost...

...steal all the underwear from the adjacent male bunk, with the long-range goal of slinging their jockey shorts from the moose antlers in the main dining room. After a day of Bach, there I was slithering across the ground like a Marine commando in sneakers and flannel night gown. My objective to provoke the cute bassoonist who slept in the top left hand bunk. My dignity: like his underwear, soon to be hung from a pair of rotting moose antlers...

This can mean anything from a zebra-striped bathing suit and chino walking shorts to a slinky, maroon silk one-shoulder gown and a black crepe cocktail dress. Davida Levy of Miami's Main Event even sells something called the "executive dress," which may be worn with a jacket and a reversible vest for an approximation of the three-piece look.

Indeed, retail prices of maternity clothes have more...
