...better against the run than the pass, so look for White to open things up. KICKING GAME: Punter-placekicker Rob Steinberg converted seven PATs last weekend. Had a 37.2 average a week ago. Needs one point to become tenth all-time leading scorer among Harvard kickers. Even KICKING GAME: Silvio Bonvini (3-6 field goals, 10-10 PATs) handles the placekicking. The punter is Dimitri Yavis. Both are freshmen. COACHING: Joe Restic, now in his 15th year, needs one win to become Harvard's alltime winningest coach. Known for ingenuity--read--Multiflex. Even COACHING: Bob Stull will be facing...
...from applying embargoes against East-bloc nations. He gave no ground on the shooting of the U.S. officer in East Germany and was noncommittal about the possibility of increasing Jewish emigration. He sarcastically lamented that the American press depicts Soviet citizens as "living in caves"--to which Massachusetts Congressman Silvio Conte responded that the Soviet press portrays U.S. citizens as sleeping on gratings. Gorbachev was particularly disturbed by what he later described as the "absolutely incomprehensible haste" with which the U.S. rejected his freeze proposal...

Agreed Republican Congressman Silvio Conte of Massachusetts: "There's a strong feeling out there for a freeze across the board." In a speech last week at St. John's University in New York City, Reagan indicated that he is "willing to consider" cuts as long as U.S. security is not threatened. The Administration is hoping to force Congress to slash specific programs rather than impose a percentage reduction in military outlays...
...Silvio Cardinal Oddi, 74, the Italian member of the in group, runs the congregation that deals with priests not in religious orders, managing, for instance, the crackdown against priests in politics. Affable and highly conservative, he is a friend of John Paul's; the Pope enjoys his dry humor and no-nonsense air. Another Italian, Agostino Cardinal Casaroli, 70, is nominally the Pope's top aide, but has little influence on internal church affairs: he is now largely restricted to temporal and diplomatic matters, in which the Pope recognizes his supple mastery...
