...Concert was a pastiche of compositions from Harvard, Radcliffe, Wheaton, and Brandeis--eleven numbers by as many composers. A concert so structured could lose in coherence and theatricality what it had to offer in variety. This problem was avoided by presenting works so similar in conception, style, movements, music (non-music or no music) and even costumes and lighting, that they could well have been created by only one person. This left the rather depressing impression that all young choreographers around here are thinking and producing the same dreary stuff...

Little was based on the question: if New Hampshire raises the taxes on cigarettes and liquor, would they lose income from student buyers? When the study revealed that higher taxes would make no significant difference in quantity of sales, the Granite State promptly upped its rates...
Humphrey suffered no direct damage in Indiana and was only nicked in Washington, but he stands to lose considerably if Kennedy runs a string of primary victories that crush McCarthy's candidacy soon.

The woman's husband is mentally deficient and unable to work...
...cool spring night at Yankee Stadium, Mickey Mantle, 36, leaned into a high fastball and belted it into the rightfield stands. The Yankees went on to lose the game to the Cleveland Indians, 3-2, but The Mick's blast was a victory of its own. It was his 522nd homer in 17 years as a Yankee, and it moved him past Ted Williams into fourth place on the alltime list, behind Babe Ruth (714), Willie Mays (569) and Jimmy Foxx...
