College football's annual bunch of bowls saw a thriller in Pasadena, a retirement party in Tampa, and the controversy neatly removed from the running for the national championship. The Arizona State Sun Devils (11-1) lost a shot at a perfect season and their first national title when Ohio State played spoiler with their Rose Bowl win. The Buckeyes' Joe Germaine threw a 5-yard touchdown pass to wide-open David Boston with 19 seconds left. Just 1:21 earlier, Jake Plummer had appeared to stage another heroic rally to victory. His 11-yard run capped a 58-yard...

...must commend you on your straightforward article about Richard Jewell, who was accused and then cleared of planting a bomb at the Olympics in Atlanta last summer [SOCIETY, Nov. 11]. You didn't paint Jewell as an angel, nor did you show the FBI to be a bunch of total ruffians. Most important, your story showed us how easily any person in the U.S. can become enmeshed in a battle with the system. Every day people are mistreated by bureaucracies, their lives and names dragged through the mud without their having any recourse even after they are cleared. Our system...
