...social implications aside, the match Saturday should prove dramatic. It means more to Desaulniers and fellow seniors George Bell and John Stubbs than any previous varsity contest. To win, the Crimson will probably have to contend not only with the Tigers' depth, but also with a pack of bussed-in Princeton fans, who have intimidated Harvard in the past...
...charm was famous; Fox seems to think that that elusive quality can be conveyed by flashing his teeth, which he does with alarming regularity. Simpson was enormously attractive to many men; as Harris portrays her, even a dullard like this Edward would have had enough sense to pack her off to the Tower - or head for the door at first sight...
Back in the pack, Robert Dole, Phil Crane and John Anderson may draw more votes than expected because of their performances in the debate.

The good guys (Springsteen, Dylan, the Who) win; the bad guys (from Black Sabbath and the Tubes to Mac Davis...
