...ought to remain. Arthur Jaffe, professor of Mathematical Physics, is one of them. Jaffe, who won the Heinemann Prize for mathematical physics this past week, contends that there's a good reason for the traditional lag: "the awarding of the Nobel Prize at too young an age can conceivably hamper a person's career. It focuses the attention, the publicity, in such a special way. You're so much in the spotlight, and your science suffers correspondingly." But Glashow, while feeling the immediate pressures of the prize and the extent to which they impinge on his study, does not agree...
Playing on a wet, slippery field, several Bowdoin players had trouble making quick cuts. However, the sloppy conditions did not hamper the Harvard attack...
...experience. Captain Mike Brown should do well at a guard spot. Besides Durgin, line is not very big. Eric Spiegel should figure in at a tackle spot; but injuries could cause depth problems. Running backs Paul Connors looks like the leader, but a pre-season groin pull could hamper him. Loss of Ralph Pollilio and Matt Granger leaves Harvard with the job of reconstructing the backfield. Jon Hollingsworth, Chuck Sandor and Tom Beatrice all are contenders; but all are fairly inexperienced. Receivers Rich Horner looks like one of the Ivy League's top receivers. Letterman Chuck Marshall looks good...
...people. We have unexploited mineral resources. We can earn more from tourism than from exports. And we can export construction and engineering services to regional countries. But we are in a very volatile situation. The opposition has chosen this particular period to stir up a government crisis, which will hamper our opportunity to restore our economy with foreign aid. We risk seeing this year wasted in the economic and social sense. We must live with instability for some time, but instability may be the price we have to pay for democracy...
...pulled an old shirt from the brimming laundry hamper to sop up the water on his skin. Then he teetered out to the dining room table and eased himself into the heaped-up clothes he had left there. It took him five minutes to tie the shoelaces. Keys, watch, wallet. The first picture in there was his driver's license, grinning, sun-tanned from water-skiing, so long ago. He flipped the plastic. Oldest son as high school graduate, long gone, ski-bumming in Colorado, a five-minute phone call six months ago was about all. The two girls...
