...critical press coverage, maybe something good will develop. Maybe next year all of Harvard's talent can be put together to make a winning, perhaps championship, team. The election of Regan is probably the biggest boost that Harvard lacrosse can be given right now. Much of the progress depends at this point on positive response by everyone involved, including some generous alumni support
...defeat, however, is not the end of the road, but a bridge to a European integration. His departure will no doubt make progress in revitalizing the American-European Community. As such, all Western nations should support France to help replace despair with opportunity until good becomes better, and better becomes best.

Rightful Owners. If the new proposals prove to be more than another mirage, Nixon's repeated claim that progress is being made will be justified.

Director James Goldstone even manages to make a wreck of the most celebrated American auto race. Progress is as circular and unsurprising as the movement of a minute hand; the script is reminiscent of a radio play, with an announcer booming: "It's a different Frank Capua out there today!" When the film casts a sociological eye, it is toward such riddled targets as baton-twirling teeny-boppers and accident-hungry spectators...
