Secretariat could probably have finished even faster, but he is fastidious about his mealtime manners. He likes to work on the mash for a while, then refresh his taste buds with a sip of water or a few wisps of hay. From time to time he pauses to tidy the floor of his stall by picking up stray kernels. He is the neatest glutton at the track...
...Gilbert's comedie manque does not refresh. Like real life, it can even be quite a bore. Gilbert struggled manfully with the fact that the life he was filming did not lend itself easily to a dramatic format, that like most lives it essentially lacked the clear developments and resolutions of fiction. Not only did he edit his 300 hours of film down to 12, but he arranged his episodes out of chronological order, beginning with the last day's filming, New Year's Eve, 1971, and then recapitulating the previous seven months. From the first episode, Gilbert tried...
...fears of some of my friends who knew what I was going to be talking about I'm not here to castigate male chauvinism in 14 Plympton Street or anything of the kind, this is a celebration not a recrimination so my purpose is really historical to refresh memories and perhaps to indicate a few things that some of the older people here might not even have been aware of.

U.S. Track Coach Bill McClure, for one, thinks that there may be too much of a good thing. "The only trouble with...
Harvard, too, has a yearbook, and I'm glad it does. Everyone may not share my feelings, but I feel there's a place here for a book which those who so desire can pick up and use to refresh their memories years and decades from now. So, I am more than sorry to point out that Three Thirty Five, this year's example of the genre, is utterly worthless as a chronicle of Harvard's 1970-71. It is neither comprehensive nor interesting. It is also boring past the point of no return...
