Miller's rounds in the major tourneys over his career bear close resemblance to the fever chart of a malaria victim. In his U.S. Open victory he parlayed a disastrous third round 76 into a closing rush for 63, the lowest round to hit the books in either the British or U.S. championships...
...faster rate than in 1975 in four of the seven nations represented at Puerto Rico. The British rate, though it declined from 24.9% to 15.7%, remains ruinously high. Meanwhile, the Japanese tempo has nearly doubled, and Italy's rate has rocketed to potentially catastrophic proportions (see chart).

That was a natural assignment for Cook, since he was the first to chart large areas of the Pacific (among his discoveries: New Zealand, the New Hebrides, New Caledonia, Easter Island).

Be sure to stand at the window in the front of the train next to the engineer's compartment so you can look right out on the tracks. You can chart rising land values by looking at how close new subdivisions come to the threstle--the closer the homes, the more expensive the lots are for the builder. The trestle neight offers excellent view of North Church, North Station and the Prudential development...
