...writes Harold on a sheet of yellow paper, belongs to the night and together they conspire against Boston. They live illicitly, caress each other with streetlamps and shadows and juke box symphonies, the soft sob of loss, the subway shudder and the sigh. Night warms its black limbs by the gutter fires and furnace spit. We should bottle the night, prone and passive, siphon it into leather canteen flasks, take swigs of it while sunning ourselves by the river, savour it after a French loave-lunch, rub it on our arm in lieu of excrement...
...Bolles', and John Yovicsin's blood after the 54 to 0 loss against Yale. The eleven's 3 and 5 record has been worse in recent years, but an eight touchdown loss to the Eli effectively ruins any season. Few Harvard fans will ever remember without a shudder the spectre of Dick Winterbauer cocking his arm in the direction of the Crimson goal line for one of his numerous touchdown passes.

If it does not unravel completely the mysteries of extreme youth that it poses, it at least has the power to make adults shudder at the unwitting wrongs they can do the very young...
...quarantined, and strict measures are taken to keep the pest from spreading. The scientists are none too hopeful. Witchweed seeds are invisible when mixed with soil, and they can be carried by farmers' boots, auto tires, shipments of farm products or almost anything else that moves. Experts shudder to think what would happen if a hurricane were to pick up the seeds and scatter them like smoke. The parasite can probably thrive throughout the South, from Virginia to eastern Texas. It can live on wild grasses, including the common crabgrass, and the 20-year life of its seeds makes...
