...DeCamp, Clark's counterpart on the left side, has nothing but praise for the right-side pair: "Both are very good at making adjustments based on the defensive man's first move. On our last TD against Dartmouth, they picked up the blitz on a '25 blast' play, and because they saw it coming there was a huge hole for Ralph to run through...

Tower, with a two-to-one fundraising advantage, will have an edge in the last weeks of the campaign as he launches a media blitz.

He has gained favor among right-to-lifers by offering to introduce a constitutional amendment prohibiting abortion except in the case of rape or incest or when necessary to save the mother's life. These are issues on which Anderson...
