...democracy or the center of anyone's existence, the Union still manages to hold a definite, if somewhat subordinate place in Harvard life. When the Harvard Council for Undergraduate Affairs suggested several years ago that the Union be converted into an all College Student Union, cries of pain were heard in the Yard. Freshmen rallied to the defense of their Great Dining Hall, vigorously extolling its importance and proclaiming there were those who love it. One wing has been completely expropriated by the Varsity Club and the band has the part of the basement left by the kitchens...
...receiver now and they were ready to go. But Betty was upset, and she said, "Look, Martin, I could have lied to you and told you I was stuck in the snow, or that it was my dog's birthday, but I'm telling the truth!" Martin barely heard her; the pleasure was intolerable. He screamed into the phone. "LOOK, BETTY, YOU'RE LYING!!

They developed an idiosyncratic way of perceiving, interpreting their surroundings so subjectively that their reactions or lack of reaction mystified onlookers.

The tone is softer, rounder; one note leads gracefully to the next, and the result is just as satisfying in its own way. Unexpectedly bending and holding notes like a crooner, Dylan gave a lyric, wistful quality to the traditional Irish ballad, Wild...
...F.D.I.C.'s chore was somewhat more complicated. The federal agency is suing the bank's president, Jack Park, who has been mayor of the town since 1954, for $512,000 that it says he embezzled. But the F.D.I.C. seems alone in taking offense. "I've never heard such nice things about me as people said after the trouble started," says Park. In fact, when the Pioneer and Old Settlers Association held its annual meeting last month, its members elected Park treasurer to guard the association's $10,000 in cash...
