Next time you eat an apricot, take a good look at the pit. This seed, along with seeds of many other fruits, contains a chemical which has been described as "an ideal anti-cancer drug...
PROVIDENCE at CORNELL: The game between the first and eighth seeds has never been much of a contest, and it seems unlikely that Cornell will be sorely pressed tonight. Last year, these teams met in the first round at the same rink, and Cornell skated to an easy 6-3 victory. Given Cornell's phenomenal success at Lynah Rink (only Clarkson has beaten them there in the past five years), it is difficult to see how the Friars can reverse last year's results. Granted, Providence has proven its ability to win in hostile rinks, having defeated Brown at Meehan...
...physical pounding it had absorbed in the quarterfinal game against RPI. Even though the Terriers destroyed the Engineers 11-0, in that game, and again won easily at Boston, 7.3, last month, they probably would prefer to play someone else if they could. RPI, who slipped into the seventh seed despite a mediocre record against a relatively undemanding schedule, does not have a reputation as an especially clean hockey team, and is probably aware that it has little, if any chance, of advancing very far in the tournament. Consequently, there is a decent chance of a repetition...
...fare and play tonight's game by computer. Still, the Golden Knights are a troublesome team, and have done two things this year that Harvard has not--beaten Boston University by four goals, and defeated Cornell at Ithaca. That alone was probably enough to give them the sixth seed, despite a recent loss to Boston College. But Clarkson is not the team it was last year, and its seeding shows it. The Knights lost All-American goaltender Bruce Bullock and the best of their forwards, and have generally been the most inconsistent hockey team in Division this winter. True, they...
...HAMPSHIRE at PENNSYLVANIA: Just two weeks ago, New Hampshire seemed assured of a comfortable quarterfinal game at Durham, and was even breathing on Harvard's neck for third seed. Now, after losing at Clarkson a week ago, the Wildcats are hitting the road, and it could mean that they'll have to wait yet another year to play at Boston Garden in the ECAC semifinals, Pennsylvania, once the laughingstock of Eastern hockey, has built a fast, deep squad with a nucleus of Canadian material, and it deserves a seed in the top four as much as anyone. The Quakers have...
