...plot of the play, which ran at the Loeb Experimental Theatre through March 24, is well known: Fearing that Julius Caesar (Mead) may be crowned Emperor of Rome, a group of Roman citizens, led by Brutus (Jon E. Gentry ‘07) and Cassius (Alexander J. Berman ‘10), plan to assassinate...
...game, effectively sealing the win.“When it got down to it, we were real tired and they were real tired,” Mahler said. “Those last two minutes, we were just looking to do something to seal the victory, so I ran at the goal and tried to dunk it.”The decisive goal didn’t come without a bit of controversy.

He wrote more than a dozen songs for her, all to be found in The Complete Lyrics of Frank Loesser . They started with the 1943 "Murder, He Says," about a girl's jive-talking beau; during the number she jitterbugs, seesaws her shoulders, puts her hand to her tummy and sashays sexily - all stops out for Betty...
