...military mission- in Potsdam, deep inside the Soviet zone southwest of Berlin. Three weeks ago East German police machine-gunned a mission staff car, narrowly missed killing the two Americans inside. Immediately, U.S. European Army Commander in Chief General Bruce C. Clarke demanded an apology from his Soviet counterpart, Marshal Ivan S. Konev. When Konev's reply proved "unacceptable," Clarke hung a huge padlock on the gate of the Soviet mission in Frankfurt, posted a communications truck near the entrance to report every movement of the occupants.

In a few rough, abrupt, sometimes unfinished brush strokes the figure is forcefully rendered...
Leading the team this year is Gene Kinasewich, Kostandoff's counterpart on the Crimson's. The flashy wing-center is the basis of the Crimson's offensive attack, although he has been surpassed as scoring leader. Topping the heap now after a prolific performance in the team' last five games is Kinasewich's linemate, Tim Taylor...
