Mornings after, fraternity brothers are draped across beat-up furniture like limp spaghetti. At most fraternity houses just about the only sign of civilization is a composite picture of the members that hangs over the fireplace. Upstairs in Theta House a green banner forlornly proclaims, WHEN BETTER WOMEN ARE MADE, DARTMOUTH MEN WILL MAKE THEM. Through halls that seem to carry scars from ancient battles, a brother who has just wakened stumbles along, scratching his chest and testing the elastic of his underwear. He is sucking sleepily on a lollipop. "Boy did I get messed up last night," he mutters...
...infuriated by the blatantly sensationlistic story by J. Wyatt Emmerich and Alexandra D. Korry in the Crimson of March 2. Your article, which by its banner headline implied a connection between Senator Kennedy and a $200 contributor to his campaign, is a disgusting example of journalistic excess.

...strains of the Chinese national anthem sounded first last week on the south lawn of the White House, as summit protocol demands. Then the U.S. Army Band gave an equally rousing version of The Star-Spangled Banner. From a windswept podium on the crest of the low hill, the two leaders exchanged bland welcoming remarks, then mounted a balcony to acknowledge the applauding crowd of some 1,000 dignitaries. Suddenly, Chinese Vice Premier Teng Hsiao-p'ing departed from the traditional script. He impulsively grabbed Jimmy Carter's hand and held it high. They looked like a pair...
