...particularly the Three Amigos, Elway's merriest band of pass catchers: Vance Johnson, Mark Jackson and Ricky Nattiel. With Gerald Willhite among the fractured, honest workman Sammy Winder more or less constitutes Denver's running game (quarterback scrambles excluded). A lot depends again on the arm of Elway, though maybe also on the foot of Rich Karlis. If Karlis had made a couple of makable field goals in the first half of last year's Super Bowl, the game could have been much different. The Redskins' kicking game has been so shaky, Ali Haji-Sheikh and Jess Atkinson were still...
...tough love is your thing, you can find a lot to love about Joe Clark. Bullhorn cradled in one arm, a stack of books and papers resting in the other, the 48-year-old principal of Eastside High in down-at-the-heels Paterson, N.J. (pop. 140,000), charms and bullies his way through the bustling corridors of his ordered domain like an old-time ward boss, relishing every step.

Compared with the record of abuses in such countries as El Salvador and Paraguay, the number of disappearances in Honduras is relatively small. But the histories of the four who vanished there satisfied the OAS's requirements for hearing such cases, including that the petitioners must have exhausted all other avenues of recourse. Moreover...
...been set up to organize and encourage future disturbances. It is made up of six to eight people, at least three of them Islamic fundamentalists and the rest with ties to the Palestine Liberation Organization. The P.L.O., initially caught off guard by the spontaneous uprisings, said its main arm, Fatah, was responsible for an attempted raid into northern Israel by three Palestinians. The trio entered the country by cutting a large hole in the security fence along the Lebanese border and apparently intended to attack a nearby kibbutz. The raiders were hunted down by an Israeli border patrol and killed...
