...shift some of the emphasis from Martin (whose output suffered when double-teamed), and the team must learn to play its kind of game against any opponent. The losses to graduation will be heavy (Field, Velie, Sailer, goalie Betty Ippolito and forward and inspirational leader Elaine Kellogg), but the nucleus of young talent is there, 1980 was supposed to be the year for the Harvard field hockey team, but now success may have to wait until this current crop matures and is joined by another bunch of new faces...

Investigating further, he learned that the formation of antigens was controlled by a group of genes on a specific chromosome in a cell's nucleus. He called these genes the "major histocompatibility complex," since it was the prime factor in determining whether transplanted tissue would be rejected...
...even when science was attracting little popular interest, plenty was going on. Investigators were making enormous strides, especially those involved in basic research?inquiries with no immediate practical payoff.

Still others discovered how the earth's surface, found to be unexpectedly mobile, has been shaped and reshaped over the ages. Perhaps most startling of all were the explorations on the very frontiers of life. For the first time, scientists were beginning to understand...

But the assault force that, in a change in Government, would descend on Washington and take command remains largely unknown.

Chief of Staff Edwin Meese, who probably would get a top job in a Reagan Administration, has deliberately kept the formation of this...
...American freshmen, including one star from Hawaii, will join a solid nucleus of returning players. Only two of the club's top competitors were lost to graduation and, except for goalies that Hansen labels "untested against superior competition," the prospects look bright. Enriquez and left-handed field player Hansen will be joined by star junior Houston Hall and strong sophomores and Fullerton, Calif., residents Phil Atkinson and Rich Guerra...
