...freshman Ella Witcher, Gray's sister, will start at the fourth or fifth position this year. Endresen, Brown, freshman Lindsay Coleman, and sophomores Francis Holland and Sarah Feinberg will likely round out the Crimson lineup...
...lodging at the work camp only $125 a person, the Kraussers spent less than $1,000 for their two weeks. The Greek group leader often sauteed calamari for a treat at lunch, which was the main meal, and the seven other campers, all in their 20s and from Holland, France, Crete and Britain, shared recipes.

The likely number of deported Jewish-Catholic converts, Cornwell says, was "no more than 92." Though undeniably tragic, 92 deaths seem a thin reed on which to base a continent-wide policy of discretion in the face of murder...
