...Mark O'Donnell [before he did that silly piece in New Times]. An underground group of renegade "funny" students--all of whom remember the good old days of Padan Aram, The University Enquirer, and Stephen S.J. Hall--decide they'd like to put on a humorous show in order to raise enough money to go to Bermuda. When, in desperation, they go on a mad rampage through the tired symbols of American cultural bankruptcy--Easy-Off, Mopeds, McDonald's hamburgers, pre-meds--they suddenly realize that they can do it without the formula. They can do it all with mirrors...

...Lions are currently 8-2 in the Ivies, so it is imperative they sweep Dartmouth and Harvard in order to set the stage for their March 3 battle with the 9-1 Quakers for a share in the championship.

The Administration expects its nonresident students to "maintain good order, behave responsibly, and to maintain proper decorum in relationship to the community." I do not believe its decision to hold classes set much of an example for us. But maybe this is one advantage that living away from Harvard provides--it is not so easy to lose touch with reality.

...detailed knowledge of oil and gas prospects." That put Hirsch in a position to save Superior much time and money by telling which areas looked promising and which were duds. Mobil says he also knew its secret-bid calculation process, a complicated method of outguessing the competition in order to make bids for oil leases as low as possible, yet still win them. The Canadian suit named Arne R. Nielsen, president of Mobil Oil Canada, who was well versed in highly classified and arcane Mobil technology, including its airborne radar propane seep detector and computer graphics modeling system...
