...like yearbooks. Several hours wasted with 325, the latest product of Harvard Yearbook Publications, only strengthen this conviction. These comments cannot hurt Yearbook sales, most of which have already taken place and will take place again next year no matter what the CRIMSON reviewer thinks, so I might as well say frankly that 325 enjoys all the weaknesses that yearbooks generally share, along with a few of its very...
...unbroken line of Popes from the Disciple Peter to John XXIII underlies the Roman Catholic claim to be the one true church of Christ. But it is a complex line to trace-as is demonstrated in the Vatican's just-published, red-covered, 1,784-page Pontifical Yearbook for 1961. Missing from the new edition is Pope Stephen II, making Pope John the 261st Pope instead of the 262nd...

...each year that is most worthy of recognition--we try to avoid talking about 'best pieces.' What we've established in effect is a collegiate Pulitzer Prize." Most of the committee's members were on the board of the 1943 Harvard Album--then the official title of the Harvard Yearbook. Since 1948, they have been legally constituted as the Dana Reed Prize Committee...
