With nine games remaining in the regular season (Harvard takes on North-eastern tonight at the Boston Garden in the consolation game of the Beanpot), the Crimson stands at 7-5-2 overall and 5-4-2 in the ECAC. The Princeton victory raised Harvard's Ivy log to 2-2 after a pair of early-season losses to Penn and Brown...
...very easy to get a makeup exam around here. If you're tired, extremely fatigued, backache, sore throat, or any number of aches and pains, you just go to UHS, stand in line, and say you can't function. My understanding is it's like rolling off a log. The only reason more people don't do it is that you have to pay the piper with a makeup exam later on." Most people who bag exams are good students, people who can't stand the thought of a blemish on their average...
Still, would not the President be almost forced to withdraw if Reagan embarrasses him by winning some early primaries?

In the quiet room, the President's firm voice carried a ring of conviction...
Cranberg turned his attention toward hearth fires last winter; in an attempt to conserve oil, he supplemented his home heating with his two fireplaces. Frustrated by the inefficiency of a standard three-log fire, he studied what really happened when he poked at the logs to make the fire burn better. His conclusion: "I was opening up a furnace, prying the logs apart a bit or rotating them to expose the hot, charred surface in order to get more heat into the room." He was creating, in effect, something similar to what physicists call a "black body," a furnace-like...
Easy to Light. Applying this concept, Cranberg built the "Texas Fire-frame," a spindly metal contraption that looks like a standard fireplace grate with two taller uprights at the front corners fitted with adjustable metal arms that extend into the fireplace. To use it, he places a large log toward the rear of the grate, two smaller ones toward the front, and a fourth log, slightly smaller than the first, on the adjustable arms (see diagram). He then lowers the arms until the top log just touches the surface of the large one at the rear. This creates a cavity...
