...lost all last season. Coach Alex Hannum finally told Chamberlain to be a little piggy out there, take himself a shot now and then. Wilt's response was to pump in 52 points against the Seattle Supersonics. He hit for 34 against the Chicago Bulls, 29 against the Cincinnati Royals, and the 76ers suddenly began to show some of the old spirit. Rattling off four straight victories, they swept past the Boston Celtics and took over the N.B.A.'s Eastern Division lead...

Airport officials hastened to give their facilities a clean bill. Nonetheless, twice before in the past six years the hills of Hebron have been a November graveyard for aircraft approaching...
...claimed that pilots approaching Runway 18 are buffeted by downdrafts over the hills and that the rolling terrain causes a form of optical illusion. Though neither of these complaints figures in warnings to pilots using the field, the crash of Flight 128 will reinforce demands by Ohioans to move Cincinnati's main airport away from Kentucky and into their own state...
