...newspapers for pictures of authentic decor, "historians found some clues right in the building-a bit of plaster under the assembly speaker's podium became a model for the style of the ceiling molding. Girvigian, scrambling through false ceilings, uncovered keys to the original paint job. Researchers used aerial cameras to map the mosaic floors, which were then taken up, moved and cleaned. Piece by numbered piece, all the contents of the building were catalogued and carted away for refinishing, until only the hard-fired brick shell remained. It was reinforced with concrete, and 20,000 new bolts...
...crowd or an erupting volcano. Only someone with a special eye can catch those odd and revealing juxtapositions that give meaning to the obvious and jejune. The portraits of an exploding Mount St. Helens were awesomely beautiful; but it was San Jose Mercury News Photographer George Wedding's aerial picture of Andy, an eleven-year-old who had been asphyxiated by volcanic ash as he lay in the back of a pickup, that conveyed the awful power of that awful beauty...

Sooner or later, by defection or defeat, the soldiery will fall, though the lengths Somoza went to--including the aerial bombing of Nicaragua's cities--are terrifying. Especially worth American notice is the deadly force of a few jeeps with gun mounts and a few more armored personnel carriers. Few squawk when such material is dispatched to Latin American despots, but against outgunned opponents, and unarmed civilians, it is precisely this...
Mihaly recorded two sacks, assisted on another and generally made things bothersome for the Harvard aerial attack. "I think we had a little trouble throwing," said Restic when asked why he didn't pass more. "You try to get the passing game going, you try to mix the formations, but they came on. They rushed very well...
