When Ohiri plays center forward both teams tend to bunch in front of the enemy goal; against Princeton the Crimson line found holes through which to score. O'Malley hooked a loose ball through such an opening for Harvard's sixth goal.

Last year, the New Yorkers squashed the Cincinnati Reds in five quick games. The season before that, Pittsburgh stopped Casey Stengel's bunch in seven, but not before Bomber bats had scored more runs than any other baseball nine in series history. The Pirates triumphed in 60 by pouncing on such chronic Yankee weaknesses as shaky pitching and erratic fielding...
Technicians speak of an electron "beam," but it is incorrect to think off the machine as producing a continuous flow of high-energy electrons. In reality, the electrons spurt into the ring from the linear accelerator in bunches of 100 million at the rate of 60 bunches per second. At 16 places in the ring, there are radio-frequency powered acceleration cavities. Each time the electron bunch passes through a cavity, its energy increases. The electron pulses thus receive discrete "kicks" of energy as they orbit, until they have finally reached the energy level desired for any particular experiment...
Teddy was assigned to handle a dozen Western states. Wherever they were, all members of the Kennedy family, friends and followers labored to and beyond the point of exhaustion. But both Jack and Bobby say that Teddy "was the hardest-working one of the whole bunch." He learned to fly, barnstormed by himself throughout the West, landed at strange airports in wind, rain, snow, hail and sleet. He would do almost anything to win delegates or favorable headlines.
