Columbia would like nothing better than to spoil Bernal's return, but frankly they haven't got a prayer. The Lions have developed in recent years a reputation as the most obnoxious team in the Eastern League (their totally uncalled for 102-11 romp over hapless Penn last season is a case in point), and it is extremely doubtful that even their notoriously shady home officiating can rescue them from their fate this weekend...
...Last weekend, however, the swimming stopped. Folding chairs and activists replaced chaise lounges at poolside, and the sign outside read: "Workshop at 2:30--Fighting Corporations From the Inside." In the midst of Washington wealth, the national conference of the Democratic Agenda (DA)--a broad but shaky left-liberal coalition seeking to "set an agenda for the 1980's"--was in high gear.

Though its conference last weekend exhibited DA's continuing slow but steady growth, Democratic Agenda is only a beginning. If the Agenda platform is to provide a launchingpoint for greater economic democracy in America rather than an expedient steppingstone for a business-as-usual Kennedy candidacy, coalition members will have to work on permanently transforming the outlook of the electorate from...
There were fireworks in Worcester last night as the Harvard women's swim team opened its 1979-80 campaign by torpedoing a dismal Clark squad...
