...haven't seen the new pool yet, you can get your chance Friday or Saturday. In addition to seeing the pool you can also see the Crimson aquamen take on schools named after states. On Friday at 4 p.m. the visiting swimmers will be from a state in northern New England and whose capital is neither Montpelier nor Concord...

...building of the "Betsy," acts decently even if he projects no personality. Lesley-Anne Down, late of Upstairs, Downstairs, is not only ravishingly beautiful (and we see much of her), but speaks with that enticing British accent, which in a Harold Robbins film guarantees class. I have never seen Robert Duvall give a bad performance before, but here he acts alternately demented or disinterested. He rattles off paragraphs of exposition without a change of expression, and during several "tense" confrontations, his eyes wander. Even his moustache looks half-hearted...

...universal, certain elements of Harvard life--housing, proximity to students, parents' occupations, and the number of other children nearby--make the lives of the roughly 35 children of masters and resident tutors living in Harvard Houses very different from the standard childhood experience.

...innovative linguist, Gnome Chomsky, or the tiny people who scraped together their life savings to open Gnomon Copy, or the hardy pioneers who founded Gnome, Alaska, most gnomes prefer the quiet life, in tune with Nature and all her creatures. This is why many people have never seen gnomes, and why some people go so far as to doubt the very existence of the little creatures. You might as well ask if Santa is a media myth or if hobbits are for real...

...success of the strike, in this respect, was due to two factors: the sheer number of farmers, and their anger against a system they believe has treated them unfairly. Whether the strike was successful in getting something done, however, remains to be seen. The farmers claim they are being forced out of business by the price-cost squeeze involved in trying to run their farms. In fact, many are lsoing their farms or are running into debt annually, as the rising cost of essentials such as machinery, feed and grain pushes their production cost above the prices they receive...
