...Dancer's Image receive a dose of the painkiller Butazolidin too few hours before the Derby? The colt suffers from chronically sore and swollen ankles, and Cavalaris admitted giving him the anti-inflammatory analgesic on Sunday, 144 hours before the race. The drug was actually administered by a veterinarian, Dr. Alex Harthill, who turns out to be something of a controversial figure. Although he is known as "the Derby Vet" for treating such former winners of the race as Carry Back, Northern Dancer and Lucky Debonair, Harthill has twice been implicated in drugging scandals.

And maybe H can be a religion. What this song's got in common with the other two is the message in the following lines: "Everybody...
DOMESTIC confrontations of this kind in the East European countries, despite their covert political nature, might not have led to the present tensions in the area if it had not been for one other factor: Liberalization also seems to entail a heavy dose of Nationalism--which in East Europe means independence from the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union had come to be closely identified with the repressive Stalinist regimes of the past. The memory of the blatant economic exploitation carried out by the Soviet Union in the early 50's contributes to the bitterness felt by today's liberal reformers...
