Harvard can probably shoot better than B.C. and can rebound as well, and the Crimson's ball handling is only slightly inferior. But the Eagles love to run, run, and run some more, and if their fast break enervates the Harvard five, those last ten minutes will be decisive...

Of the country's 200 million cattle, some 75% are used as beasts of burden or as milk producers. The remaining 50 million are mostly scrawny, inferior and ownerless.

Many white liberals, he said, tend to suggest academic solutions to complex problems, and so make the Negroes they are working with, who feel the problems more acutely, feel inferior. They also have a tendency, he said, to see Negroes not as people, but as problems. And he suggested that some enter the movement because "they cannot come to grips with white society.
