Changes are unlikely. The second biggest crowd in Cotton Bowl history, 78.087 strong, was on hand - hoping to see the hometown Cowboys avenge their narrow 34-27 defeat bv Green Bay in last year's National Football League playoff. What they saw was a Packer defense that kept Dallas' highly touted offense from scoring a touchdown - the first time that had happened in almost two years. The Packers crushed the Cowboys...
teams in succession - the Detroit Lions (13-7) and the Minnesota Vikings (14-9). And the same Kansas City Chiefs who were buried 35-10 by Green Bay in the Super Bowl last January gave George Halas' N.F.L. Chicago Bears one of the worst drubbings in their 47-year history, 66-24.

Buddha, they recall proudly, was a dropout from a royal family who later came back to the palace and turned on his father, the king, with nothing more than sincerity and a mendicant's bowl. St. Francis of Assisi, who left a rich Italian merchant family to live in poverty among the birds and beasts, is another hero, along with Gandhi (for his patient nonviolence), Aldous Huxley (for his praise of hallucinogens in Doors of Perception), and J. R. R. Tolkien's Hobbits (with...
