...DASHES: Villanova's chunky Frank Budd, world-record holder (9.2 sec.) in the 100-yd. dash and undefeated at that distance in two years. But in the Walnut Meet, closely pressed by Florida A. & M.'s 19-year-old Robert Hayes, Budd tore a thigh muscle and pulled up lame. But with Hayes (who clocked a sizzling 9.3 sec. at the nationals) running in the 100 meters, Paul Drayton (who turned in a record-tying 20.5 sec. for 220 yds. around a turn) racing in the 200 meters, and Ulis Williams (whose...

A high-sudsing syndet falling through a pipe from the 15th floor may enlarge itself 17,000 times by the time it hits the basement. The widespread use of low-sudsing detergents (among them: All, Dash, Fun, Spin) would help vastly to solve the problem, but they are nowhere near as popular - one building management firm offered to supply upper-floor dwellers with a low-sudsing detergent free of charge, but without success...
