Harvard's ground attack also enjoyed a field day against Columbia. Dave Bunning led Harvard rushers with 80 yards in 11 carriers, but neither he nor his cohorts in the backfield have been truly tested...
Aida is one of the few middle-aged stars of Japanese architecture who neither apprenticed nor studied under Tange. He taught at Tokyo University when Maki and Kisho Kurokawa were Tange's students there in the '50s; Kurokawa and Isozaki worked in Tange's office in the late '50s and early '60s.

They began sounding sour notes as early as 1925, when the New York Times critic found the concerto's "instrumentation . . . neither flesh, fowl nor good red herring." Composer Virgil Thomson wrote, "Gershwin does not even know what an opera...
