Increased board rates, like the Yale game, have become a regular part of a year's routine. "Spiraling food costs," say the officials of the Dining Halls, "make another increase necessary this year." And so the routine goes, a hike two years ago, another of perhaps $40 next year. Harvard, with its $590 annual charge for food, has one of the higher--if not the highest--board rates in the entire nation, a doubtful distinction at best...
Shortly after Maddix's speech, New York City labor leader Harry A. Van Arsdale, Jr. charged Blue Cross with "tolerating excessive hospital costs" and keeping labor out of its administration. Unless they can have more of a say in Blue Cross, labor leaders claim they will start their own health plans and hospitals. (It might be added that hospital officials thought the "tolerating excessive costs" charge ironic in view of the attempt of unions to organize underpaid non-professional hospital workers last spring.)

But does not a social life entail social responsibilities--even for Harvard students? That a majority (as measured by Congressional action...
...Hypnosis may be an effective technique in controlling persistent hiccups. So say Internists Gordon Bendersky and Martin Badin in the A.M.A.'s Archives of Internal Medicine. They cite one patient who began hiccuping after hospital treatment for a coronary occlusion, failed to respond to a wide range of conventional treatments (e.g., drugs, sedation, nerve stimulation). After one session of deep hypnosis, the attacks stopped. Many doctors disregard hypnosis on the ground that it suppresses symptoms without attacking the ailment's cause (whether emotional or organic), but the authors argue otherwise. Their conclusion: Because psychological problems...
