...summer and next fall adjusting to the changes which have occurred over the last nine months--getting to know Jim Greenidge, orienting new coaches to Harvard, introducing old players to new coaches, and coordinating the new women's schedules. And last week, the Cambridge City Council added yet another item to the list of challenges facing the beleaguered administrators. For decades, those in the know have referred to the athletic department headquarters on 60 Boylston St. as "60 B." But on John F. Kennedy's 65th birthday, Bolyston Street was renamed for the late president, a former Harvard athlete...

Researchers at Stanford University also found that gently oscillating waterbeds reduce breathing difficulties and encourage normal heartbeat in sleeping preemies, perhaps because the pulsations mimic some aspects of the uterine environment. Preemie intensive care units, notes one researcher, tend to be "noisy, bright, loud places with constant activity. Anyone who has spent time there can see that the babies...
...haven't written The Crimson since I was a freshman in 1947, but, on a brief visit to Cambridge recently. I read your item about the response of the Gay Students Association to statements by Edward Pattullo, director of the Center for Behavioral Sciences. I hope the GSA will not be alone in its objection to Mr. Pattullo's Pattullo's suggesting that, to the extent that homosexuality is environmentally controlled, society has an interest in discouraging it. In societies whose survival depended on the manufacture of sufficient warriors to go die in battle for the good of the tribe...
