...place where an upset could hurt the most would be in the diving competition. Harvard has a decided edge here, with four consistently strong springboard specialists in Mike Toal, Steve Schramm, Jamie Greacen, and Craig Gavin. It would be unwise to think of anything less than a sweep for Harvard on both the one and three-meter boards, unless Tiger Paul Malot, who Berizzi calls "the unknown quantity," puts in an adrenaline-fueled performance to place in either event...

That is good for California tuna men and for the Japanese, who sweep 40,000 tons of tuna annually from Micronesian waters. But the islanders lament that they are losing millions of dollars in licensing fees...
