...comrade, he had reason to cheer too. A year ago the Shah assured the Kremlin that Iran, though a charter member of CENTO, would not allow U.S. missiles to be based in the country (none had been there in the first place). As Iran shares an uneasy 1,500-mile border with the Soviet Union, Washington could hardly protest. Since then Iran has accepted all kinds of Soviet economic aid, including breeding facilities on the Caspian Sea for 3,500,000 sturgeon, which will put it in a better position to compete with Russian caviar.

Kennedy stood up to cheer only once as the teams moved up and down the field, scoring only three points apiece. Most of the time the President smoked a small cigar, chewed on his sunglasses, and chatted with aides Dave Powers and Larry O'Brien...
...reason for all this preholiday cheer was a set of figures that could conservatively be described as phenomenal.

As the game ended, several hundred Eastern fans rushed across the field and up into the St. John's section. Perhaps they meant to start a fight, or perhaps they did not. In any case, pushing matches started at the exits, and a full-scale race...
...four lines are now in good shape, and of the four none has greater reason to cheer than TWA. After losing $20 million in two years, the line has climbed back into the black, and this year expects to earn $10 million or more. President Tillinghast, 52, is so confident of TWA's good health that last week he broke off the merger agreement made with Pan American last December, when TWA's plight was still perilous...
