...freshman register, your Class ring and the orchestra's concert series. But if you haven't, be forewarned: Just because it's Harvard doesn't mean it's good. The linen service is okay if you are the type who sends laundry home--but remember that you have to pick up your linens at a particular time or place each week or else you're out of luck. If you're doing your own laundry, why not just do linens, too, and save the money. No one is really impressed by Harvard's yearbook and you can always use your...

He will face George Busbee, 47, a respected member of the state house of representatives for 18 years and now majority leader. Busbee won only 21% of the primary votes, but stands to gain more...
...question categories and winnings. Gambit is a variation on blackjack, while High Rollers is essentially a dice game with questions worked in. There are more celebrities -and more well known-on the L.A. shows. A huge pool of talent whose prime-time series have been canceled are glad to pick up this bargain-basement work. The computerlike electronics of the score-keeping on these shows is probably a fallout from the region's interest in space-age technology. The emphasis on rewarding winners with the materiel of the good life-patio furniture, camping equipment and cars, cars, cars -suits...
