...needed a new boat. The men's swimming and basketball teams retained priority for prime times on the IAB basketball court and in the pool, and Radcliffe athletes continued to hold most of their practices on the non-regulation facilities in the Radcliffe gym. Whenever Radcliffe teams had out-of-town meets, they had to find their own transportation while Harvard athletes rode in buses or airplanes. And when the women's crew--the 1973 North American champions--needed funds to travel to Moscow for the European Rowing Championships, the Friends of Radcliffe Rowing, not Harvard, financed the trip...
...food at Ken's is good. Certainly it rivals the quality of any medium priced restaurant we've tried in Cambridge. The waiters and waitresses are nice and the atmosphere is conducive to almost any occasion. In fact, you probably don't want to wait until an out-of-town friend comes visiting to go to Ken's.

She has served as a Cub Scout den mother, a Sunday school teacher and head of the local cancer fund drive. One year she had children in three different schools and made a point of attending meetings...
...news during the strike is reflected by a locust-like attack on anything printed. Newsmagazines, the Wall Street Journal and other national publications sell out within hours of hitting the stands. On a recent Sunday morning at a suburban newsstand, readers lined up in the rain to buy out-of-town papers. They brought folding chairs for the long wait; enterprising teen-agers hawked coffee and doughnuts. When 1,100 copies of the New York Times went on sale, they were snapped up in less than an hour.
