...other two came on Murray's solo blast that opened the sixth inning and a ground single off Alevizos by Pat Barry which plated Ron Valeri in the ninth. Otherwise, Northeastern's bats seemed content to sedately chop grounders to Harvard thirdsacker Rick Pearce, who handled eight chances with his usual flawless precision...

Other Governors also will bring the necessary weight in Congress to stop this approach." Mayor Coleman Young of Detroit warned of a "long, hot summer" if Congress votes to chop federal programs that help cities.

Illinois Congressman John Anderson, a dark horse Republican presidential candidate, submitted a bill calling for a tax of 50? per gal., with the revenues to be used to chop Social Security taxes approximately in half. That measure would help cut consumption by moving the price of the fuel closer to the level that most of the rest of the world already pays. If Americans are unwilling to pay the price of necessary conservation, why should the cartel members...
