Eliot won its second consecutive soccer title, and Quincy avenged last year's loss to a Yale touch football team with a last minute rally, but house champion Kirkland bowed to Jonathan Edward-Brandford, 34-12, in tackle football. It was the 31st year of intramural competition...
...Praise Jesus!" cried the young souvenir sellers around Jerusalem's holy places. "Hallelujah!"

When his father entered the White House, Hoover was 25 and had already set about carving out a career; he made his professional mark in the scientific and administrative sides of mining. Avoiding politics, he sought the ingredients of what he considered a happy life: "The outdoors, far away places, and mining engineering."
