...weird building on Mt. Auburn St. lives the Lampoon, a bunch of guys who think they're really funny. Usually they aren't. A lot of people on campus hate the Lampoon. Their humor, if you can call it that, tends to range from preppie-obnoxious to racist, but they do have occasional bursts of brilliance. The problem is that they're generally convinced of their genius. Two years ago, after a series of racist items in the magazine (how does a cover showing the statue of John Harvard with a black child shining its shoes grab you?), black students...

...back to The Slump. I can't remember seeing the Sox so feeble at the plate at any time since 1975. George Scott looks pathetic--but you have to feel sorry for the Boomer. It's painful watching Boston's racist fans get on him in particular (although he is in a worse slump than anyone else) when the rest of the team is messing up, too. But Boomer's heroics of late make you wonder yet again about that trade with Milwaukee two years ago for Cecil Cooper. Cecil is 25 and a future great, but for the Boomer...
