...EVERY young art consumer worth knowing will tell you, there is no room for adventure in the modernist world. Action went out of style long ago. Smuggling, suspense, suitcases full of money, and tales of exotic islands don't make it anymore. It's kid's stuff, or worse, it's boor's stuff...
...taken on a distinctly Nixon-Ford tinge, as members of previous Republican administrations-reshuffle and reassemble. To the disappointment of fire-and-brimstone loyalists who dreamed of a Moral Majority-staffed White House, the only truly new face on the scene pushing for extreme government disembowelment is whiz-kid budget-slasher David A.

She studies hard when she is on location and says she got two A's and two B's in her last marking period. (Director Zeffirelli did the unheard...
...total in the Ivies yet this year. . . .BOB McCABE'S four blocked shots against Yale are the most by any Crimson player in a game in recent memory. . . . Speaking of McCabe, former Crimson hoop coach and current director of intramurals FLOYD WILSON said yesterday. "I've never seen a kid work so hard to come back from injuries the way he has." The sophomore center--after injuring his knee early in the fall of 1978--was told that he would never play basketball again. Just look at the two scars on his knee to get an inkling...
