...machines--on loan from the Digital Equipment Corporation--are part of the University's efforts to keep pace with the rapid growth of personal computer technology. Mark Van Baalen '66 of the Office, of Information and Technology said yesterday...
...dual-anchor NewsHour premiered the same Labor Day evening that the networks offered solo-anchor shows for the first time since 1976. That singular difference in format, however, seems less striking than two other qualities: the leisurely, almost ruminative pace of the NewsHour, vs. the breakneck momentum of the commercial networks; and the prominence given to live interviews, vs. the commercial networks' almost exclusive reliance on rigorously edited scripts and footage.

...Angeles to the wooded hills west of Boston. Once the ruburbs were self-contained farming communities, but the prohibitively pricey real estate of both city apartments and suburban homes is attracting metropolitan immigrants to places like Harvard, Ill., and Saugus, Calif., where the price is right, the pace is easy and the commute to work adventurous but tolerable.

The big day began with a parade through the middle of town in a 1928 antique Ford, and went on to include a stop at the old family home (24 Juniper Street). As passionate about political issues as he is on the podium, Bernstein strongly endorsed the nuclear freeze movement in a speech. But the maestro was irked by Senator Edward Kennedy's failure to show...
