Says a spokesman for the right-wing Likud coalition: "Everything leads to the conviction that Labor will not head the government any longer." Not quite. Likud Leader Menachem Begin is still in the hospital after a severe heart attack, and Yigael Yadin, head of the upstart Democratic Movement for Change, is fighting libel charges. Even so, Labor Stalwart Abba Eban confessed to doubts that the party "can still turn the wheel and gain momentum." If not, the sad end of Yitzhak Rabin could be followed by the demise of the Labor government he has suddenly ceased to lead...
...economy is not to go smash. Should Britain's economy crash, Goldsmith feels, democracy would expire in the wreckage. Part of the trouble, he believes, is a "cancer in the British press eating away at its guts."

His only real problem since a heart attack 15 years ago arose when his first implanted pacemaker proved inadequate for his vigorous regimen. Pacemaker No. 2, he says, works just fine. When Chaffee plays, he wears a steel-ribbed corset to support his back; he has a displaced vertebra. Yet he is able to intimidate most...
...that French has left McEneaney alone at Cornell, Hanna has the best one-two attack punch in the Ivy League: Second-team All-American Wickie Sollers (49-19-68) and his All-Ivy sidekick Dave Tickner (34-32-66). Both players will undoubtedly break the school's career scoring record by midseason...
