Profile: When Chrissie Evert flew into Boston last week for the Virginia-Slims-sponsored U.S.Women's Indoor Championships--with her mother, a half dozen tennis dresses and many flavors of make-up--she was expected to win the tourney. And the way she played during the first few days of the event, it looked as if she would...
Indeed, the make-up of undergraduates in Dudley (which includes the Harvard Co-ops and Apley Court residents) appears to be a mixture of extremes. It has more people on probation and more people graduating with high honors than any other House. It has the highest percentage of former prep and private school students: 51 per cent. Relatively speaking, it has a very small proportion of athletes and a high proportion of returning Radcliffe women who have interrupted their studies to have children. Seventy of its residents are married. ("Many more are virtually married, but not legally," says Marquand...
Still, the conservative make-up of the Economics faculty makes any real progress towards the inclusion of Marxian economics impossible.

...message itself was succinct: a three-minute transmission in mathematical code describing the make-up of the solar system, the inhabitants of earth, the present world population and the double helix of the heredity molecule DNA. The signal was transmitted last week by a team of U.S. scientists from the giant radio telescope at Arecibo, Puerto Rico, a vast antenna 1,000 ft. in diameter lining a natural bowl formed by hills. The target was Messier 13, a cluster of some 300,000 stars located on the remote fringe of the Milky Way. Addressed simply to "Occupants" of any planets...
