...Toronto Blue Jays made Kash Beauchamp, son of former major leaguer Jim Beauchamp, the first selection in the regular phase of the 1982 winter amateur draft. In contract news, Chris Speier signed a three-year deal with Montral, Dave Rozema signed a three-year deal with Detroit, negotiations between the Dodgers and Fernando Valenzuela have broken down with the two sides over half a million dollars apart, and the Red Sox have reportedly decided not to continue to pursue free-agent pitchers Rick Waits and Sid Monge...
Psychobiologist Gary Beauchamp of Philadelphia reported that the odor of female guinea pig urine is such a powerful stimulus to the male that it loses interest in mating if its sense of smell is impaired. When Beauchamp removed the male's vomeronasal organ, which relays odor information to the brain, sexual activity declined.

...That changes the ballgame!" cried one Allis-Chalmers executive. And there, at least by Ling's calculations, it should have ended. Even Beauchamp (pronounced beach 'em) E.

Negro Novelist Ralph Ellison says that the enduring Dilsey Gibson reminds him of the real-life Rosa Parks, who touched off the Birmingham, Ala., bus boycott one day in 1955 when she refused to stand up for a white passenger because her feet hurt. Lucas Beauchamp catches to perfection the abrasive, unbending independence of a man like James Meredith, who integrated the University of Mississippi three months after Faulkner's death...
