...into the den of reporters. These remarkable beauties are photographed like zoo animals and interviewed sarcastically. The little gymnasts become so excited that they start to jump up and down in tandem, forming a huge black wave on Harvard Street. Two juniors dressed as cows, complete with rubber udders, saunter onto the scene...
...golfing quota, President Clinton is considering in earnest some staff changes recommended by his new White House-cleaning chief of staff, Leon Panetta. While Clinton isn't expected to issue major announcements this week, he's approved stricter job definitions for free-floating senior aides, who can no longer saunter into the Oval Office at will. As of today, ex-communications director George Stephanopoulos is Panetta's deputy; adviser Bruce Lindsey moves to the White House counsel's office, as does Clinton kindergarten buddy and Panetta predecessor Mack McLarty.

Now you'll be spending the rest of the semester biting your fingernails...

Especially visible among the 450 Jewish residents are 150 students of the Shavei Hebron Yeshiva: in pairs or threes they patrol the roads connecting the settler enclaves, assault rifles slung over their shoulders. As they saunter through the streets, Arab merchants grow anxious. The yeshiva boys frequently overturn their stalls or bash their cars. "It's a daily business the trouble they make," says shopkeeper Mohamad Sharif. The settlers admit to these actions, but say they commit them only when provoked...
