...foul-pop misjudged by Rick Burleson, Carl Yastrzemski and Butch Hobson in the bottom of the eighth gave Texas Ranger d.h. Willie Horton the chance to drill a two-run double and lead his team over Boston by a 3-1 margin...
...Little Mary Sunshine, a delightful satire of those song and dance shows to which director Greg Delawie '80 and the South House Drama Society have done justice.

It felt good to be moving again as we sloshed through the leaves which cascaded down around us in the strong wind. We reached the car by dark...
