...size holes at guard; age appears to be robbing Forrest Gregg, Jerry Kramer and Bob Skoronski of their speed and timing. In the backfield, the Packers sorely miss the devastating running and blocking of Paul Hornung and Jim Taylor. Replacements Donny Anderson, 24, and Jim Grabowski, 23, may yet earn their $1,000,000 bonuses, but they have quite a way to go: against Minnesota, Green Bay's "Gold Dust Twins" gained only 32 yds. in 19 carries. Bart Starr is still the incomparable quarterback. But Starr has been hampered by rib injuries and a jammed thumb, served...
...Even at Ticktacktoe. If ever a player earned the "most valuable" honor in a Series it was Pitcher Bob Gibson, winner of the first, fourth and now the seventh games. "I don't even let my ten-year-old daughter beat me at ticktacktoe," said Gibson. "If there's one thing I can't stand, it's to lose." Ten Boston batters struck out trying to get hold of his searing fastball, then Gibson frosted his own cake by smashing a fifth-inning home run into the center-field stands.

Almost everyone is now agreed that marijuana is neither a true narcotic nor addictive, but Oteri's experts went further. They absolved...
...tradition. Still working a single shift, Meissen's chi-namakers fire their pottery to over 2,500° F. in antiquated, three-story-high ovens that hold 5,000 pieces at one time. Its painters, trained by long apprenticeships, continue to do all their work by hand-and earn an average $150 monthly. In addition to its present line of 5,000 basic designs, Meissen has kept the forms for all the chinaware it has ever made. It will reproduce any piece for buyers willing to pay the price...
...Graduate students in 1967-68 will keep their deferments--M.A. candidates for one year, and Ph.D. candidates for no more than four. A candidate for a professional or doctoral degree who was in school last year has a total of five years, including those he has already completed, to earn his degree. Then he will go into the pool of maximum eligibility even if he is over...
