...woman's potential for communion with nature, in the final analysis she was his to possess.

...Dylan will still play the game, though; Nat Hentoff reports that when Ginsberg asked Dylan for confirmation that the song was written for his wife, Dylan solemnly reminded him that Sara is the name of one of the Old Testament judges.) In the earlier song, as in One More Cup of Coffee, he could only approach her through her attributes--thus, the proliferation of possessives (your mercury mouth...your eyes like smoke...your voice like chimes, etc.).

Because, says Czechoslovakia's coach Karel Gut, his team can win the gold medal. The Czechs lost the Izvestia Cup tournament to the Soviets last December by only one goal, and the Russians had home-ice advantage. Gut is confident that Goal Tender Jiri Holocek and Wing Vladimir Martinek are the equals of the better-publicized Soviets. The Finns are a solid bet for a bronze, but the young American team could surprise. In fact, U.S. Coach Bob Johnson is planning on it.
