...falling asleep while on duty. But Trerice was not responding to treatment. After two unauthorized absences from the ship, he was placed in the brig. On April 14, Trerice refused to complete an exercise session for CCU inmates. According to some accounts, he asked to report to sick bay, but was instead commanded to lie face down on the sun-baked flight deck. There is disagreement about how long he remained there: 25 minutes, says the Navy; more than one hour, say some shipmates...
...drums, and Billy Bremner on second guitar. It's his fourth effort with them: Lowe has two, and the group as a unit has one.

In two years, he took top laurels on 37 of 39 trips to the post, earned $2 million and became the sixth horse to win pacing's Triple Crown. Now that Niatross has hung up his harness...
...cleaning up. Tom Henderson, a foreman of a team of loggers working to salvage what might be as much as $50 million worth of downed timber for Weyerhaeuser Co., gets $11.80 an hour, plus a $6-a-day hazardous-duty bonus. So does Norm Pettit, who came from Coos Bay, Ore., because "this is the only boom area in logging in the county." Jobs with cleanup and logging crews have attracted enough newcomers to push enrollment in the Toutle school district from a pre-eruption 502 children to a current...
