In a country that has never known free speech, it is hard to judge the truth. Perhaps, though, the children are still honest. One little boy suddenly approaches in a crowded market to announce...
...with two seconds left when Dartmouth’s Harris sank what he intended to be a game-tying three-pointer. Harris, who was guarded by Harvard senior forward Sam Winter, took one extra dribble before he released the shot, just stepping inside the line and allowing Harvard to hang on by the slimmest of margins...
