...goes back to the days when some club oarsmen pulled up along side another club's shell in the water and started a fearsome donnybrook. It's not quite the same as the Harvard crew's winning tradition--but it was one hell of a good time, a grand style of rowing...

...your life this Thursday night. Burton, in addition to being one of Jazz's most accomplished vibraphonists, moonlights as an instructor at Berklee. Keith Jarret on the other hand, is a pianist who has rejected electronics completely and plays nothing but normal piano. But this has not cramped his style at all. In fact, his extension of new music past the limits of the Jazz-rock hybrid has made Jarret a genuine innovator. As a special attraction the Harvard Jazz band will be appearing too--so go. October 31 at Sander's Theater. All tickets...

...rather like going to the bathroom." Now men sit around Superhair and countless other salons with a head full of rollers while their unperm sets.

He had exploited optical dazzle in works like After-image (1955) long before Op art was ever heard of. His use of chance and planned matrices foreshadowed the later interest in serial and process imagery, but he never got credit...

...Perilous Job. True enough-but the Spurr affair was an eloquent reminder of recurring campus politics at Texas, the second richest (after Harvard) and fifth largest university (73,000 students) in the nation. The firing typified the style of the man who forced Chancellor Le-Maistre to do it: Regent Frank C. Erwin Jr., an ex-Democratic national committeeman and crony of Lyndon B. Johnson and former Governor John Connally. Erwin has really run the 16-campus university for more than a decade. Four years ago, for example, he personally fired Liberal Philosopher John Silber as dean of Austin...
