...Reaganomics, but in public they appeared appropriately anguished and angry, especially the would-be Presidents. In Los Angeles, at a Bethlehem Steel plant the company intends to close, former Vice President Walter Mondale told a crowd of steelworkers that "we've gone beyond fat. We're into bone and muscle. Now unemployment is cutting deeply into the heads of households." Massachusetts Senator Edward Kennedy was no less impassioned. Said he: "This is a national tragedy and a national disgrace. How many dreams have been lost...
Allard, (11 of 16, 104 yards, two TDs) did not come back for the second half as a result of his bad bone bruise, but the three touchdowns he put on the board before intermission, and a beautiful scoring drive executed by third-string QB Jack Riordan to open the second half--including Riordan's own 41-yard run--proved enough to clinch Harvard's second Ivy victory-(against no defeats) on the year, and raise the Crimson's overall record to 3-1.

G spot is for the new book about that odd finding, published amid considerable commercial hubbub: a first printing of 150,000 hardback copies by Holt, Rinehart and Winston, and deals with six book clubs...
...present. With a vengeance. "I am not pessimistic, I am not obsessed by death, I don't believe in fatalism," Thompson insists. "I am an outside observer, like a journalist." Nevertheless, these observations seem drawn from inside himself. The album's title cut, for example, is a bone-chilling evocation of metropolitan madness, a song full of abrupt violence and long shadows of empty city streets. It's Just the Motion is about drowning, literally and figuratively, slipping off from life at the bottom...
