...varsity lightweight boat that had come to Worcester screaming "No prisoners" louder than ever and vowing revenge for the May 6 loss to Yale, was just one of four boats that could not make up the difference. After rowing furiously hard through the middle 1000 meters of their race, the lights fell victim to exhaustion in the closing sprint.

He never once demanded an end to political repression. Engelhard may have been a philanthropist at home, but throwing money about does not absolve him of responsibility for the inhumane methods in which he earned that wealth. He may have contributed...
