...years ago there was no Cambridge Rindge and Latin School at all, only the Rindge Technical School and Cambridge Latin School. In 1976, hoping to integrate the vocational, blue collar orientation of the former with the academic, college-boundphilosophy of the latter, the city school committee decided to merge the two. Construction for a new one-campus high school began on the Broadway site, and students, staff and teachers met their shortly after...

Smith, 37, is just another guy named, well, Smith. Yet his company, Federal Express Corp., has become a $600 million firm by delivering packages that "absolutely, positively have to be there overnight," as its ads claim. Nolan K. Bushnell, 39, invented Pong, the first video game, in 1972. He then sold...

...there were several unresolved issues. GM and the union could not agree on job guarantees for production workers or on how to limit the shift of auto-parts production to cheaper, nonunion manufacturers. There was also disagreement on how to match benefit cuts of blue-collar workers with those of white-collar employees...
