...defense is one of the best anywhere. Tackles Wilson Whitty and 240 pound Ray Norton should pressure Ric Zimmerman all afternoon, and may be able to slow down Harvard's famous ground game. Norton was All-East in 1966, and Whitty may join him this year...

...Theses. Those who do get in must affirm that they oppose Bonn's "revanchist policies." East Germany is also trying to transform Luther into a precursor of Communism: a new, authorized biography states that he started "class warfare" in Germany and more or less laid the ground for Communism-even though, concedes the author, Luther "was in no way aware of this...
