...first match. In this weekend’s other action for the Crimson, Army rolled to a 30-10 victory over the Harvard wrestlers later in the same day. The Crimson had strong performances on Saturday by junior tri-captains Max Meltzer (141 lbs.) and Bode Ogunwole (heavyweight), who each picked up two victories on the day. The team, however, was out-wrestled in almost all the other weight classes. “I think it’s great that both of us got wins,” Ogunwole said. “But I think...
...Kochhar, the first Indian to receive a Michelin star, flew in to prepare meals. The message was clear: India is in. And less explicitly: it's time for the world's decision makers to stop obsessing about China and take a closer look at the other emerging Asian economic heavyweight.

...Attorney Tom Campbell, a Bob Dole campaign leader and administration appointee and backer of President George H.W. Bush announced he would run as a fiscal and social conservative.

Despite traveling with only six wrestlers, the Harvard wrestling team finished at a respectable 18th out of 50 participating teams in the Midlands Championship, hosted by Northwestern at the Welsh-Ryan Arena just before the holiday weekend. Junior tri-captain Bode Ogunwole, entering as the top-seeded heavyweight, was the only Crimson wrestler to advance into the semifinals on Friday, the second day of the tournament. He defeated Dave Herman of Indiana in a 5-3 decision Thursday and overcame Tyler Rhodes of Northern Iowa, 2-1, in a match that went to overtime. In the semifinal match Friday against...
...Cinderella Man The truish story of a down-and-out pug, Russell Crowe's James J. Braddock, who overcame injuries, dire, depression era poverty, and a lackluster record to become, briefly, the World's Heavyweight champion, Ron Howard's movie was the year's most notorious flop. But it was a good, tough, well-acted, beautifully designed and photographed movie, sentimental without being squishy, inspiring without being a tear-jerker and featuring honest, honorable performances by Crowe as well as by Renee Zellweger as Braddock's fierce, brave wife and Paul Giamatti as the wise-guy manager who stands...
