Despite alert farmers, the tree thieves are still reaping a rich harvest. Mill owners are too happy to see black walnut logs to ask embarrassing questions, and new state laws designed to reduce tree rustling are proving hard to enforce. Thieves at work near Monroe, Iowa, added insult to injury. Spotting a black walnut tree near a house, they noticed that the residents were not at home. In felling the towering tree, however, they sent it crashing onto the house, causing $2,000 in damage. Undaunted, they cut off the top of the tree, took the trunk and left...
Elsewhere in the Ivies, however, Penn returns with the harvest from the winningest '72 freshman team in the country, beaten only by Princeton, whose varsity this season also poses a championship threat.

...whole country, and, while I wouldn't go across Stuart Street to see Neil Young (with or without the Stray Gators) there are an awful lotta people who would, like roughly 25,000. My roommate wanted nothing more than to see Neil Young, but that was before Harvest. I'm inclined to agree; it's been artistically downhill for him ever since the momentary flashes of brilliance on After the Goldrush. But Jesus, what can you expect from a guy responsible for "Hello Cowgirl in the Sand/Is this place at your command...
