...this figure is true in general, then the Harvard players have reason to operate 20-30 per cent above the peak which they've seldom reached. B.U. is the too-oft-chanted number one, undefeated in ECAC play. Giving the Terriers their premiere Eastern loss would be the big win the Crimson needs, the one that has been missing since it slipped away December...
Still, the bumpy rate cuts dramatically signaled an end to the pressures that last year drove interest in the U.S. to a 45-year peak. When the Federal Reserve Board hiked its discount rate from 4% to 41% in late 1965 to fight inflation, commercial banks lifted their prime rate in tandem from 41% to 5%. As loan demand soared, the prime rate moved up three more times by mid-1966-a 33% increase in eight months. Since September, the squeeze has eased -imperceptibly at first but lately significantly.

The present art scene offers other creations: paintings that are an eye-blinding dazzle of stripes; canvases that are cantilevered from the wall right over the living-room sofa; gadgets that jiggle, wiggle, writhe and spin. And, though it is past its peak, there is pop: an assemblage in which a real lawnmower leans against a painted canvas; Brillo boxes designed to look exactly like Brillo boxes; cartoons blown up to mural size, complete with dialogue balloons and lithographic dots; old bits of crumpled automobiles presented as sculpture; an old Savarin coffee...
...basketball, star of the world-famed Harlem Globetrotters from 1942 to 1955 and since then with his own Harlem Magicians, a jolly black giant of a man who brought razzle-dazzle ball handling to the sort of high art and low comedy that earned him more at his peak ($65,000 a year) than he could have made with a straight pro team; after a long illness; in El Paso...
