HAMLET. Some actors merely occupy space; Nicol Williamson rules the stage. His nasal voice has the sting of an adder; his furrowed brow is a topography of inconsolable anguish. His Hamlet is a seismogram of a soul in shock. Here is a Hamlet of spleen and sorrow, of fire and ice, of bantering sensuality, withering sarcasm and soaring intelligence. He cuts through the music of the Shakespearean line to the marrow of its meaning. He spares the perfidious king who killed his father no contempt, but he saves his rage for the unfeeling gods who, in all true tragedy, make...
...nature, even while he struggles with the challenges of new frontiers, to keep on creating ever newer ones. Last week the latest frontier in man's long journey through history moved more than 250,000 miles from the earth into the blackness of space. There, in the most ambitious and dangerous space flight yet undertaken, U.S. astronauts came within nine miles of the surface of the moon, nearer than any man has ever been to another celestial body...

Probably another reason for the program's failures has been the lack of space devoted to the contests in the CRIMSON. This difficulty arises from lack of space and, especially, a scarcity of people to do the writing. The erstwhile Mr. Sherman, consternated by the situation, sent the CRIMSON a scathing letter in the fall. In replay to a subsequent request by this newspaper, he sent us a list of athletic secretaries, double-spaced, to facilitate communication with these valuable sources of information. I imagine we regret the fact that after that we were still unable to increase coverage...
