...first two shots went astray, but the third ripped into Primitivo's stomach. He staggered to the school, where Mrs. Kindermann, who had escaped while the fight was going on, called an ambulance that took him to the General Hospital. Not one of the respectable people around the school bothered to call the police or interfere in any way during the ten minutes it took for the grisly scene to play itself out. Three of the attackers were in jail last week, a fourth was in a boys' camp, and the fifth was released to his family...
...larger stake in the aprés-De Gaulle era than Georges Jean Raymond Pompidou, 56, the onetime professor of literature and investment banker whom De Gaulle thrust untutored into French politics as his premier in 1962. The only man in his Cabinet that the general deigns to call by his first name (everyone else, both friend and foe, refers to the premier as "Pompon"), the bushy-browed Pompidou has long been De Gaulle's unspoken choice to succeed him.

...They call Gary Beban "the Great One" at U.C.L.A., where in a three-year football career he ran for 1,271 yards, passed for 4,087 yards and scored 35 touchdowns in leading the Bruins to 22 victories and two ties in his 29 games.

Simpson: "Gary, you're the greatest." Sportswriters and broadcasters agreed. By a slim margin...
Outboard racers call Lake Havasu's four-mile course "the toughest in the U.S.," and last week's eight-hour race was a battle for survival. Within two hours, 26 boats were out of action, including Ogle's catamaran. Craig Breed-love's U-707 flipped and catapulted him out of the cockpit. With Teammates Cooper and Ramos handling the wheel, Reagan's Rayson Craft opened up a 6-mi. lead; then, with an hour and a half to go, Mike took over. It was eventful: the boat's dashboard collapsed, and Reagan...
...mine," whispered Audrey Oliver, proudly cuddling the six-month-old infant in her arms. "I'm going to call her Candy." The scene was hardly surprising, since it took place in the reception room of the Children's Bureau in Indianapolis. What made it unusual was that the abandoned child was being adopted by a woman who, at 29, was and is unmarried...
