If you're in the mood for a revival of the oldtime originals, Rick Benjamin's Paragon Ragtime Orchestra will have you humming along and even perhaps dancing in the aisles. Crowd-pleasing vintage American popular tunes will awaken your senses as the PRO fills Spaulding Auditorium with the joyful sounds of classical ragtime and plays the original musical score to accompany a screening of Charlie Chaplin's silent film "The Rink."

A beautiful maiden living within the walls of the enemy. A dashing young hero. An old master, skilled at the art of swordplay.

Last weekend's Tubestock was everything it was supposed to be. The sun was shining, the water was warm and everyone was out there enjoying the day. It didn't matter that most of the rafts sunk or that we all got burned to a crisp, Tubestock was great. More than anything else, it clearly showed that Dartmouth students know how to enjoy themselves. Unfortunately, I can hardly say the same thing about the administration.

Sophomore parent's weekend is upon us. Like all of you whose parents are arriving, I took steps to prepare for the weekend. I cleaned up my room, removed the blue nail polish, and covered up my tattoo (just kidding). For the past week, I've been really excited because my parents will arrive today, and for the first time, my sister will also be at Dartmouth.

The College announced plans yesterday to make housing additions to the East Wheelock and Choate Clusters over the next six years that will allow the College to strengthen safety measures throughout its residential system and "decompress" a number of residence halls that are currently overcrowded.

Bridget Jones, the 30-something single woman brought to life by author Helen Fielding through 365 days of entries in "Bridget Jones's Diary," lives and works in London where she smokes and drinks and pines for dates and watches her weight fluctuate from an ideal 119 pounds to a not-so-ideal 131.

I am writing in response to the Bear Bones cartoon printed (for the second time, I believe) in the July 20 issue of the Dartmouth.

This coming weekend will mark the 30th anniversary of the release of Humanae Vitae, Pope Paul VI's great encyclical which reaffirmed the Roman Catholic Church's teaching on the use of artificial contraception. The date may likely pass without even a mention of the encyclical. Or if someone realizes the anniversary, the comments will likely be snide and condescending.

Every once in a while, the Trustees of Dartmouth gather here in Hanover and discuss matters related to Dartmouth. These aging individuals, most of whom graduated from Dartmouth before the days of co-education, rule and guide Dartmouth while they live thousands of miles away, pretty much ignorant of students' needs.

Yesterday marked the graduation of students attending the final session of this summer's Accelerated Language Program.

Every song out of "Embrya" oozes sexuality. Whether smooth operator Maxwell is reflecting on a newly found lover or seducing another, Maxwell continues to push R&B into another level. A contemplation about relationships and sex, the new album lacks the cohesiveness found on the last album, "Urban Hang Suite," which was structured from courtship to marriage. "Embrya" describes and dwells on each subtle rise and fall within a relationship.

With one qualification, "There's Something About Mary" is one of the funniest movies in recent memory. The minor detail required of the audience is a total lack of class or taste, or at least the ability to leave such encumbrances beyond the bounds of the theater. If you can meet these criteria, I can guarantee two hours of belly-busting laughter.

Two weeks ago, the Clinton Administration unveiled a plan to re-establish limited affirmative action preferences for minority owned businesses. The plan responds to a Supreme Court decision that struck down an earlier system of preferences designed to direct substantial government business to minority contractors. The Court required the government to limit the scope of preferences to situations in which the government could demonstrate clear effects of racial discrimination.
