...week lettuce workers' strike in California against Sun Harvest Company threatens the existence of the United Farm Workers union (UFW), Cesar Chavez, president and founder of UFW, told a crowd of more than 500 people last night at the ARCO Forum of the Kennedy School of Government...
...tracks deserve special consideration, as they are sure to be singled out for particular opprobrium. "Belsen Was a Gas," a live recording about the infamous German concentration camp which also found its way into "Holiday in the Sun," contains the chilling refrain "Be a man, kill a man" and Rotten's patented looney-bin hysterics.

Such are the forever greening hopes of a new baseball season, and the warming sun can even stir confidence in the team that always seems to be chasing the New York Yankees, and always just falling short. Last year's collapse, blowing a 14-game lead, was of such epic proportions that it already is part of the game's lore, but the Sox insist, perhaps too strongly, that the past is dead. In his 19th major league spring, Carl Yastrzemski looks back on the year that got away and declares: "I forgot about it a couple...
