...great string of victories, Lee had almost always chosen the ground and the time of battle. But at Gettysburg he found his enemy there ahead of him and in the best position. Lee's stubbornness and his belief in his cause led him to attack despite the caution of those who wanted to slip away and fight the battle on their terms...
...world champion since 1980 but a middleweight for 14 years, Hagler is a 160-lb. fighter of old, physically and spiritually.

Doctors caution AIDS patients about quackery but understand why their advice is often ignored. Says Dr. Michael Lange, an infectious-disease specialist at St. Lukes-Roosevelt Hospital in Manhattan: "If I were told that I was going to die from AIDS in two years, I would seek help wherever I could find...
