...office bucks, there are no real competitors; Ford has starred in five of the ten highest grossers of all time: Star Wars, Return of the Jedi, The Empire Strikes Back, Raiders of the Lost Ark and Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. Now, returning from the outer space of the Star Wars sagas and the exotic locales frequented by that adventurous archaeologist, Indiana Jones, he is starring in Peter Weir's Witness, a contemporary thriller that promises to be the first hit of 1985. Put into wide release on Feb. 8, the film made...
...Opponents to the random or modified random system say group identification in Houses would be destroyed by such a change. Yet they fail to realize that while people can always find some friends in the 350-or-more-person Houses,' smaller groups of people often feel shoved to the outer parameters of the social milieu dominated by a strong central group on which the reputation is founded. In addition, the random system's opponents forget that students can find crossroads outside their Houses where they can associate with students sharing their interests. Football players, for example, can congregate at practice...
...spellbinding. The dramatic contours of his gaunt face seek the shadows, where his most pounding, powerful songs (Psycho Killer, Burning Down the House) take form. The other band members, who appear to have been born on this planet, are along to provide white noise for the Showman from Outer Space as he surfaces in a big white suit or leads his troupe in odd calisthenics that turn into a Walpurgisnacht boogie. This ain't no party; this ain't no disco; this ain't no foolin' around...
...encounter only Jupiter (in 1979) and Saturn (in 1981), missions that it carried out with great success, sending back data and thousands of spectacular photographs of both planets. But even before Voyager sped by Saturn, NASA decided to take further advantage of a onceevery-175- years alignment of the outer planets by using Saturn's gravitational pull to hurl Voyager on to Uranus, then to use Uranian gravity to speed the craft to an enounter with Neptune. Now, after 8 1/2 years aloft, Voyager has far outlived its design specifications, nursed by its controllers through only two minor crises...
Dress: As in any bar, the bouncer sets the outer limits of sartorial acceptability. Boots, gray jeans, and a slightly wild shirt are the absolute limit; its probably safer to stay within two classic Harvard styles: a Casual Kirkland (Harvard football t-shirt or a rugby shirt, Lee or Levis, Adidas or equivalent) or a Basic Eliot (Oxford button down, wool sweater, Levis or khakis). A jacket and tie for guys will only attract pesky single-sex, out-of-town-school types who think you're from the B-School...
