Watson went into a state of pan demonium as the already frenetic fans went delirious and the whole Harvard bench erupted out onto the ice and swarmed Gauthier. The Yale bench on the other hand, was the most dejected group of athletes seen around here since the '68 Harvard Yale football game, as all of the Elis were motonless and a few were visibly crying...
...Pan American World Airways purchasing agent knew a good deal when he saw it. Offered some generous cash incentives for steering a few Pan Am orders to a Miami-based electronics supplier, he grabbed.

Jefferson Burstyn, 13, appears briefly in the film as the kid next door.) Alice, says Burstyn, "is a woman grappling with the change of consciousness we are all grappling with. I'm just further along in the grapple-a little older and wiser than Alice...
