...Mike Burns, a red-headed sophomore from Martinsville, Va., who finished in 2:41:06 and placed 177th. Burns and three other runners staying at Harvard, who attend Washington and Lee University in Lexington, Va., lasted the grueling 26 miles. Tom Washington, a late arrival in Cambridge, placed 185th and was only 4.6 seconds behind Burns. Bill Kalal ran a 2:53:54, his best ever, and copped the 416th spot...
...judiciously due south of retreating backs and once smearing an upperclassman's radiator with Limburger cheese. His pranks found more acceptable outlets in stage-managing the academy's 100th Night Show, and his aggressiveness was more usefully employed on the football field. He graduated a mediocre 185th in his class of 276, but one course in which he excelled was horsemanship.

That year Abrams married an athletic, auburn-haired Vassar graduate named Julia Harvey, who regularly drove him to distraction by trouncing him in tennis, and began his Army career on horseback in the ist Cavalry stationed at Fort Bliss, Texas...
...kind of phantomlike day in a Midwest spring to inspire adventurers. A warm south wind blew across Lake Erie. On the narrow beach at the end of East 185th Street in Euclid, Ohio, a group of small sea-rovers collected excitedly around a yellow rubber raft. A few hundred feet out in the lake, drifting away in the offshore wind, was a derelict canoe-the legitimate prize of anyone who could salvage her. The rubber raft (Navy surplus), which Dickie Bauer, 14, had bought with money he had earned caddying, was bravely launched from the beach...
