According to campus legend, the founders of Clarke arrived at Dubuque by riverboat in 1843 bringing a grand piano with them. The creative arts have played a central role at the college ever since. The girls are bored with traditional music, preferring to hear concerts by Jazzman Dave Brubeck, or to put on their own performances of Virgil Thomson's Medea or Leonard Bernstein's Trouble in Tahiti. Bold, colorful abstract painting, sculpture, ceramics and mosaics by students and faculty are everywhere on campus, reflecting Demers' concept that art "is the flesh of every aspect of life...
...appearances and disappearances of TV newscasters are logged by the press with a fan-club fidelity usually reserved for grease paint performers-which perhaps they are. Thus when NBC, eying San Francisco, decided to backstop its top news team of Chet Huntley and Dave Brinkley with another duo, the New York Times duly recorded their names: Ray Scherer and Nancy Dickerson. And when Westinghouse Broadcasting Co. signed Novelist-Playwright Gore Vidal to report both the Republican and Democratic national conventions, the Times gave Vidal's assignment headline prominence-meanwhile leaving unmentioned the names of several dozen experienced Timesmen...

...fastest in 500 history. Driving a rear-engined Lotus-Ford, Scotland's Jimmy Clark roared through the first lap at 149.7 m.p.h., and other drivers strained to match his pace. One was too bold. On the second lap, drifting off Indy's No. 4 turn, Californian Dave MacDonald lost control of his Thompson-All-State Ford, spun crazily and smacked into the inside wall. In one horrible instant that none of the 300,000 spectators will ever forget, a sheet of flaming gas spread across the track...
These Wildcat scores put the writing on the wall, but it took an incredible 11-point Villanova outburst in the grueling 3000-meter steeplechase to convince the Crimson die-hards. Zwolak got the win within 9:25.7; Dave Hyland notched second place in 9:40, and the third Wildcat cohort, Marty Ferko, took fifth in 9:51. The Crimson contingent of Ed Meehan, Dave Allen, Keith Chiappa, and John Ogden failed to score...
