Lech Walesa had the overwhelming majority of the Polish people behind him, and to them he conveyed a compelling message of hope. The Poles will not forget?they never have. During Poland's 16-month awakening, the priests and parishioners of a church in central Warsaw used to sing together joyfully: "O Lord, please bless our free fatherland."

John Dowling will sing untroubled ditties, Once Mendonca and Herrrmannn clear his life of committees. Joe Restic will travel o'er hill and o'er dale, To finally score some points against Yale. Tis too bad that Hubel won't quite rhyme with Nobel; Still for him, Nico and Wiesel a Swedish Noel...
