...fleeting hour last week, it seemed more like a reunion and a radical talkfest than a murder trial. In an empty New Haven, Conn., jury room, Black Panther Chairman Bobby Scale met and embraced his old friend, Panther Defense Minister Huey P. Newton. Court proceedings and stints in jail had kept them apart for nearly three years. Now Newton was present as a spectator, and Scale as a witness in the trial of Black Panther Lonnie McLucas.

Merchandise is bought anonymously on the open market by shoppers stationed across the country and then shipped to CU's headquarters in Mount Vernon, N.Y.

...onto the railroad track, jolted nails out of the shingles in the roofs, and the hens in the poultry yards along the route laid premature eggs in fright." With slight Yankee exaggeration, a newspaper in 1885 described the first field day of the Connecticut Drummers Association in Walling ford, Conn. The fifes and drums echo anew each July along the Connecticut River, where sleepy New England villages like Chester, Deep River and Moodus quietly proclaim a heritage as old as the Republic itself. The occasion is the annual Deep River Ancient Muster, the gathering ground for fife-and-drum corps...
