...Harvard thinclads racked up two more sweeps in the short distances. Marc Chapus led a Harvard threesome with his 22.2 sprint in the 220, and Chris Nicodemus paced the Crimson in the 400-meter with a 49.8 effort...
...text bereft of all meaning, witness the Marc Antony of Austin Pendleton. He bird-chirps the resonant oratory, and his climactic moments consist of nasal sobs. He could no more move men to mass mutiny than he could leave a scuff mark on a molehill.
