...fighting-fire-with-fire schedule includes a sojourn to South Carolina next Monday and a Christmas vacation swing westward to face Stanford, Brigham Young, and Pepperdine. Sandwich those teams around the Rainbow Classic in Hawaii (Harvard has drawn Arizona State in the first round), add a Boston Garden date (against Boston College as part of a college doubleheader), sprinkle Holy Cross in for good measure, and you begin to understand wny even the most rabid Harvard hoop aficionado will settle for a .500 season...
Like a well-heeled tourist cashing in on the good will of the locals, China's Chairman Hua Kuo-feng seemed almost reluctant to end his sojourn in the Balkans. Both in Yugoslavia last week and Rumania the week before, the Chinese leader got a warm reception-and spent far more time per country than is customary for visiting heads of state.

Despite Yale's varsity victory Harvard did manage to corral the Rowe cup for the sixth time in seven years. The Crimson second varsity played a major role in bringing the Rowe home to Cambridge after a year-long sojourn to Penn by reversing the order of the varsity heavyweight race and beating Yale.

Few Americans had heard of him in his own century; today the English-speaking world tends to associate the name with an expensive steak dish (created by a chef during Chateaubriand's brief sojourn as ambassador to England). British Biographer George Painter attempts to resurrect the legend by resuscitating the man. Author of a highly acclaimed and exhaustively researched biography of Proust, Painter has produced the first part of a projected three-volume study. Like its predecessor, it promises to be a model of organization and insight...
