...turned and sprinted precariously along 100 yards of bare girders to the nearest ladder, scrambled down it to the street, dived through the traffic stream and raced 100 yards back to the apartment building. He was below the window just as the boy-Francis Xavier Lamadrid-lost his balance and came sailing down. Sarno braced himself. Frightened women spectators screamed. But seconds later, with the force of his fall broken, the child was safe in Sarno's brawny arms. Astounded passersby, screened from the catch by a billboard, assumed that Sarno had caught...

The new rule did not receive wide publicity; but a wary Graduate Student Council tried to persuade the Dean's Office that the ruling unnoticed in the spring would be unfairly felt in the fall. Last Friday's stream of incredulous and irate graduate students in Farlow House unhappily confirmed the Graduate Council's prediction. To the protesting students Farlow House, like W. H. Auden's judge, could only keep repeating...
