Closing down such major British bases as Aden and Singapore, substituting a cheaper defense line based on small, stepping-stone islands in the Indian Ocean would produce a considerable saving in Britain's annual $6 billion defense budget. The U.S. Navy is currently studying the possibility of erecting a joint base in the Seychelles Islands to that end.

Texas Coach Darrell Royal, whose only loss in his past 26 games was to Arkansas, was so nervous that he closed his practice field to visitors. Arkansas was riding a 16-game winning streak, longest in major college football. On a Fayette ville...

Continental should be able to liquidate that loan within ten years from the coal company's earnings and depreciation. Meanwhile, it can deduct the annual interest on the loan-some $27 million-from its taxable income. Judged by Consolidation Coal's recent rate of profits, the acquisition should give Continental Oil some $12 million a year in after-tax earnings, or a 25% return on its $48 million investment...
