...have to say she's kind of radical," confided Emil ("Bus") Mosbacher, as he watched the slim, white hull slide down the ways of City Island, N.Y. Along with 500 well-wishers, Mosbacher was on hand last week for the launching of Intrepid, the 12-meter yacht he will skipper against Australia in the America's Cup this fall. It took only half an eye to see that she was a far cry from the old Weatherly Bus sailed to victory against the Aussies' Gretel in 1962-or for that matter, from any other 12-meter ever...
...oarsmen, the Sprints are not just a one-afternoon affair. For them, it all begins with a bus ride to Worcester Friday. That late afternoon they will practice on the lake for the first time. The practice is quiet and intense--the lake is silent and without spectators. After practice the crew eats dinner at a Howard Johnson's, then finds a motel to sleep in. There while the crew tries to rest for Saturday the coaches and coxes for all the boats competing in the sprints assemble to iron out the technical details of the meet, preparing for Saturday...

GREECE is expecting to top the 1,000,000 mark in tourists for the first time, and a big attraction, as usual, will be Athens and the islands in the Aegean Sea. For the first time, tourists will have an alternative to bumping from site to site by bus. Instead, ruin viewers can sail the wine-dark sea in comfort on a scenic three-day cruise (for from $75 to $160) aboard the Meltemi, which stops at ports near Delphi, Epidaurus and Corinth...
...century, Protestant and other non-Catholic clerics maintained that any public funds for education had to go to public schools only: Catholics argued for a share for parochial schools. This deadlock effectively prevented federal aid to education, although since World War II exceptions began to appear-first in public bus service, then in publicly-paid-for milk for parochial schools. When the Johnson Administration in 1965 devised a bill under which parochial schools did receive federal aid-in the shape of textbooks and many other classroom facilities-there was no major Protestant opposition. And there may be little objection...
