Mike Stenhouse came off the bench to hit twice from downtown, and Mark Hadley scored seven points in a six-minute span to keep the hoopsters in the game, as his three-point play cut the Columbia margin to 40-29 with 1:23 left in the half...
...Kleinfelder gave her squad an intermission tongue-lashing, it had a delayed effect. SMU guard Mary "Downtown" Hill swooshed home three unanswered long-range missiles before All-Ivy standout Wendy Carle answered the rainmakers with a nifty maneuver underneath.

According to Western eyewitnesses, Soviet warships have been lobbing shells into the city. Most of Massawa's civilians have fled to the nearby hills, where they live in makeshift shelters, in desperate need of food...
