Theresa began mothering Harvard students some 20 years ago as a waitress in the old Hayes-Bickford's. Since then, the lady with the world's stoutest smile has cheered her customers in sports, counseled them in love, sympathized when they broke up with their girl friends and watched them get married.

Tried without counsel, he spent 91 months in jail, working off his 30-day sentence and $254 fine at $1 per day. Only Justice Hugo Black joined Stewart in holding that the case should be reviewed.

Until this year, the waitress-served meals, which began promptly at 6 p.m., were the rule in every Radcliffe dorm. But as an economy measure this fall, only one dorm in each of the three Houses continued the tradition.
