Captain Tony Lynch, defending champion in the 60-yard hurdles, is Harvard's surest first-place bet. Lynch ran 7.2 for second place in the IC's, and the nearest Heptagonal competitor was Navy's Joe Wiggins in the fifth spot. Amount sophomore Gordon Rule, who upset Lynch in over, should battle Wiggins for second place tonight...
Harvard should pick up another victory in the two-mile where Jim Baker faces a host of runners who have good times in their scrapbooks but have failed to live up to notices in the IC's. Navy's Greg Williams, with a 9:04.4, has the best clocking in the league, with Princeton's Geisel (9:06.9) not far behind. Army's Paul DeCourvey may be the best of the competition in this one, but Baker beat him easily in December on first the last half of a mile, two-mile double...
...success has brought problems that Puerto Ricans never thought would worry them. Emigration to the main land, their traditional answer to chronic overpopulation, has slowed as jobs have become more plentiful at home.

Kamekura boasts that he is performing a badly needed service: "When it comes to doing away with the strains and stresses of big-city living, there's nothing more effective than fishing. And you can fish right here in Tokyo without battling your...
Influence & Pressure. The major top ic of the conference was the touchiest issue that now faces Orthodoxy: how to initiate and carry on the theological dialogue with Rome that Athenagoras and Pope Paul VI agreed to when they met in Jerusalem last January. Merely putting the subject on the agenda led the Orthodox Church of Greece to boy cott last year's Rhodes meeting, partly because the Greek bishops are fearful of Rome's power and partly because Athens' Metropolitan Chrysostomos is jealous of Athenagoras' growing influence in Orthodoxy. Strong pressure from some progressive metropolitans...
