...quality of these works ranges from excellent to nauseating. But it is a fact that treatment of the theme has changed. "Homosexuality used to be a sensational gimmick," says Playwright Crowley. "The big revelation in the third act was that the guy was homosexual, and then he had to go offstage and blow his brains out. It was associated with sin, and there had to be retribution."

...about what he'd say. But he probably won't, and the game will go on. Rich Policastro will throw 50 passes or so, completing at least 15 or 20, and that should about do it.

...enough guys like that at Harvard, and all that information does is let me answer someone when he says, "Say, who is that guy over there?" So next time the guy on your side nudges you and says, "Who's number 28?", you can answer, "Gray, but he never was in Nepal...
