...quite nothing: while much of the nation's breadbasket has turned to toast, the news is decidedly mixed. According to the Government, the drought is not yet as bad, overall, as 1980's savage hot spell. And there is more palpable consolation for farmers: the shrunken harvests (perhaps 4.5 billion bu. of corn, vs. 8.4 billion bu. in 1982) have helped reduce enormous surpluses, thus pushing some recent cash prices higher than they had been in nearly a decade-74% above last year's dismal levels. And last week a bit of rain did fall from Topeka...
...many cases, even look for it. On the spectator craft flanking the triangular 24.3-mile course, good binoculars are necessary just to tell one boat from the other. Back in town, a lot of broiling people in madras shorts and Top-Siders will drink large quantities of beer, and toast being at the scene of an international occasion.

Last week, though, neither Mitterrand nor his ruling Socialist Party observed the second anniversary of his mandate with so much as a public toast or official reference. Any celebrations, in fact, would have been unseemly in the face of widespread disillusionment in France that, under the pressure of economic austerity, is deepening into a testy, resentful mood. On this year's rainy May 10, the youths on the streets were students protesting education reforms. Instead of red flags and roses, they carried anti-government placards and, occasionally, crowbars to use against riot police...
...Worcester last Sunday, site of the 38th annual Eastern Sprints, the seven seniors and two juniors comprising the Crimson varsity boat proved Parker right. The varsity Eight, plus cox, became the toast of Eastern crew on the strength of a dramatic, come-from behind, photo-finish victory over Brown and four other boats. The underdog Bruins were edged by two-tenths of second in a six minute race, which translates into a bow ball on a boat deck or maybe even a thick hair on Harry Parker's receding hairline, take your pick...
