Well, all-American Lance, who beat Harvard 4-3 in overtime last February, was just okay (one goal, three assists), but the real story in Cornell's 4-2 win over the Crimson last evening was the performance of high-scoring sophomore Brock Tredway. Tredway used Nethery's set-ups for three goals in the first two periods and left Harvard with its second straight well-played loss and 13th setback of the season...

...Okay, so where does this leave undergraduate theater and Harvard undergraduates, the sole body of students whom Brustein is contractually required to serve? I don't know.

This view certainly seems naive these days, with the shift in emphasis in this country becoming increasingly youth-oriented over the past...

...okay to ski tomorrow," Joe Capp, owner of the Snow Pine, told us. "They're going to blast it all away this afternoon." Blast? Oh yeah, didn't you know, they fire Howitzer shells into the side of the mountain to make the snow come down. That way you didn't take the chance that someone would be skiing or standing in the way of an area with avalanche potential. Predictability was the key-take the risk out of it; shoot it down from those little wooden sheds on the snow cliff-with the World War II heavy guns mounted...
