...copper mines of Chile are a natural proving ground for the boss of Anaconda Co.-Charles M. Brinckerhoff, 63, who last week was promoted from president to the newly created post of vice chairman and chief executive officer. He succeeds Clyde E. Weed, 74, who stays on as chairman. A Columbia-trained mining engineer, Brinckerhoff spent 23 of his 38 years with Anaconda supervising its Chilean mines, the source of 70% of the output and 80% of the profits of the world's second largest copper producer (after Kennecott). Among his honors: the Bernardo O'Higgins Order...
...blast was aimed at one target, Republican Governor George Dewey Clyde. The Utah Education Association, the N.E.A. affiliate that represents 98% of the state's public-school teachers, thought it had wrung a concession from Clyde last summer when he named a committee to investigate their demands for more money to run the schools.

Geerlings, chairman of the senate tax committee, accused Romney of supporting the biggest budget in state history ($633 million), and "getting it by twisting the arms of Republican legislators." Romney, he raged, had "kicked farmers in the teeth," "thrown small business into a tailspin," and had taken credit for measures passed by the legislature. "I am tired of the front office taking credit for going from payless paydays to a $60 million surplus. The payless payday, as everybody knows...
...Celtics tugged at Wilt's jersey, stepped on his toes, impaled him on their elbows. In the first game Chamberlain scored only 22 points, and Boston won 108-96. In the second game frustration finally got the better of Wilt: without warning, he hauled off and floored Celtic Clyde Lovellette with a whistling right to the jaw. Boston still...
