...second half, Northeastern kept the ball in the offensive end, but a swarming Crimson defense kept the Huskies at bay. The best they could muster were some long shots that streaked wide of the goal while Seidler hovered over them like a hawk...
Resplendent in a purple, lace-cuffed outfit, tricornered hat and horn-rims, he looked like a happy straggler from a Bicentennial parade. But no, that was Arizona Senator Barry M. Goldwater, 67, manning the battlements on Maryland's Chesapeake Bay last week.

Although it would add to transportation costs, and presumably to consumer fuel bills as well, Sohio can temporarily ship part of the surplus-perhaps 200,000 bbl. daily-on U.S.-owned tankers, through the Panama Canal and on to the Midwest...
