...wonderful article concerning the plight of the left-handed person [Jan. 10]. A year ago several friends and I came to the same realization. The result was the formation of the L.A.W. Society: Left-Handers Against the World. We would like to mention two other discriminatory practices perpetrated on left-handed students.

To Israel's understandable chagrin, the resolution failed to mention the Athens attack. Pope Paul VI sent a sympathetic message to Lebanese President Charles Helou, "deploring violent acts" and asking Lebanon to refrain from taking countermeasures...
...Lions do have a couple of swimmers worthy of mention. Their most outstanding competitor is sophomore Homer Lane, who has been winning regularly in the freestyle events at 50 and 100 yards. Lane was the first Lion ever to break 50.0 seconds in the 100 free, and is considered the most promising swimmer in many decades...
