Sure, Page gave the Big Green (4-2-1, 3-1) an early 7-0 lead by breaking three tackles en route to a 49-yard TD jaunt. All right, he did open the margin to 14-0 before half-time by breaking two more tackles to stroll into the end zone with a 28-yard score. Yes, in the third quarter, he did set up a field goal with a 79-yard sprint down the left sideline, leaving three more Harvard would-be tacklers clutching the brisk New Hampshire air.

They are his and his wife's handiwork, says Kaledin with pride. He dreams of designing uniforms and ensigns for a revived Ukrainian army. Pointing out a friend on the street -- a scrawny person of decidedly unmilitary bearing -- he explains confidentially that the young man is destined to become "one of our generals...
...called gay -- when everyone was strong and supple, when partying was a kind of performance art, when promiscuous sex was both a political declaration and a fashion statement. It is the summer of '81. Sean (Mark Lamos) and David (Bruce Davison), a middle-aged couple, watch a hunky guy stroll past them on a Fire Island beach, and their toes curl with wry pleasure. But a New York Times story about a newly discovered condition afflicting homosexual men has the gentle revelers wondering: Is the CIA trying to scare them out of having sex?
