...Faculty of Arts and Sciences yesterday voted by a clear-cut majority to allow a limited number of freshmen to participate in "experiments designed to intensify the intellectual experience of the freshman year." These members of the Class of 1963--probably numbering up to one-tenth of the Class--will receive course credit for their work...
...Scott, a very pretty blond Smithie (class of '59), has a pleasant and natural voice, but more striking is her versatility of dramatic expression. In one scene, she coos sweetly over the new-born babe as the group sings "Virgin Mary Had a Little Baby," and in a subsequent number, she brandishes a mean pen-knife in a rowdy rendition of "Union Maid." Although 3 Folk Sing is nominally a trio, there is also a fourth, Paul Prestopino, a talented instrumentalist who accompanies the others. With his black beard and black-rimmed glasses, he provides added flavoring to the "Family...
...Steichen's pictorial essay begins and ends with a recitation of the theme: "All man is but one man."

Between each number the theatre is blackened and the performers take their positions for the next of the songs--some interpreted as still pictures, others with lively action. In the "complaint category," for example, "Talking Union" and "Union Maid" are done with audience participation, including community singing on the chorus of the latter...
Probably seeded too low at number seven, Bowditch, a sophomore, beat some of the best men in the tournament on the way to his victory. Particularly impressive were his wins over Tom Richardson of Amherst and Tom Freiberg of Yale; both men are experienced seniors and former finalists in this tournament. In the final, Bowditch beat unseeded Clyde Buck of Williams, who had earlier upset Weld and Raul Karman of M.I.T. Weld, Vinton and Wood all reached the round of sixteen before bowing...
...Mole's admonition to his daughter and Julien, "Don't be so romantic, you are both fools," is all too apt. There is a limit to the number of sighs, passionate leers, and little boy looks that even the French can get by with. There is also a limit to an audience's toleration of the naturally objectionable Julien, made even more objectionable by 137 minutes of technicolor...
