Dissolving a coy smile into a demonic leer, he half snarls, half shouts the notorious Anarchy...

That man is Pete Orschiedt, who in his brief one year stint as hard coach last year managed to round up all but one of the red-hot freshmen who have thrust Harvard onto the national swimming scene this season...
