Diving coach John Walker said he was "very pleased" with the performance of his lone diver, freshman Pam Stone. Stone took first place in the three-meter event and a second from the one-meter board. He felt the strength of her victory came from her outstanding consistency...
...NASL have often been viewed as stepping-stones to the U.S. Senate (admittedly only by people with extremely poor eyesight), and speculate that Henry might be trying to shore up his American sportsman image before challenging New York Sen.

Cynically one expects to find old shoes...
