...Harvard students live off-campus in the summer--inhabiting apartments scattered over Greater Boston. Some do reside on-campus, but not in the Yard with the "summies." Instead, on-campus Harvard students stay in the Houses, enjoying, in some cases, the "Gin and Tonic Societies" which several Houses sponsor to satisfy the souls of House members standed in Cambridge during the summer...
...similar reaction when, as an Army private in 1958, he lost the All-Army tournament to Moody by one stroke. Stationed at Fort Hood, Texas, in 1967, Moody trounced three businessmen from nearby Killeen so regularly in high-stakes matches that they decided it might be cheaper to sponsor him on the pro circuit with a first-year guarantee of $20,000 in expenses against 50% of his winnings.

For while Egypt's Gamal Abdel Nasser now only talks about forcing the Israelis to withdraw to prewar frontiers, the commandos still insist that their goal is the destruction of Israel and the recovery of Palestine...
...possible for the city and the universities to onnounce, after appropriate study, a joint program to add a certain number of housing units with a five or ten year program. We would like to see the university, as part of this joint program, reconsider whether it might become the sponsor of one or more federally assisted housing programs. The university already owns property along the Charles River that might be the site of a federally subsidized development open to both faculty and non-Harvard citizens...
