PAUL NEWMAN'S FIRST FORAY into directing. Harry and Son, presents a series of excruciatingly mangled human relationships. At times touching, at times insightful, and generally well put together, the movie is rather like watching a show of hyper-realist depictions of dirty laundry, done from all angles.

We admit to being impressionable, but not hyper-credulous simps. His first two tactics for system beating, his Vague Generalities and Artful Equivocations, seem to presume the latter, and are only going to convince Crimson-reading graders (there are a few, and we tell our friends) that the time has come to tighten the screws just a bit more...

...Crimson--with an injury list that reads like a "Who's Who of All Stars"--heads to upstate New York this weekend for matchups with Cornell and Colgate. Piersiak, who suffered a hyper-extended elbow yesterday, Ellen Velie, Ellen O'Neill, Lisa Black and Alicia Clifton all have been hobbled by injuries...
