...almost carded another eagle on the par-five fourth. His five wood to the green flew long and was bunkered, but he almost holed the explosion shot coming back. He settled for a par after missing a tap-in for a birdie...
...Norman Lear take All in the Family around to union halls or down to a few blue-collar saloons before he inflicted Archie Bunker on us? Thank God that Lear did not get his hands on Roots. He would have turned it into a 400-year-old tap dance...
...raised to distract the reader from the real question, the role and behavior of the conference organizers. On some campuses, it is true, organizers involved student governments in planning stages: my point, however, remains: that they did not involve the student bodies as a whole nor did they successfully tap into the active political movements on most campuses.

The Harvard organizations involved in the conference were involved only to the extent that individuals working on the conference also...
Thebes Like Us. Misdirected and acted with varying amounts of ease, this Leverett House show almost makes it. Andy Sellon's words and Andrew Schulman's music intermittently entertain, but the production borders on the amateurish rather than the amateur.

The ballet bits added a little visual spice to a largely aural show, and let lithe Bonnie Zimering show her impressively precise dancing--but fancy ballet choreography and Duke Ellington are uncomfortable stage-mates at best...
