...later this month, is currently storming the heartland, dishing out 2½ hours of red-hot rock. His E Street Band helps keep things always at the boiling point. They are powerhouse musicians who have raised roadhouse rock to Olympian heights. The driving delicacy of Roy Bittan's piano, Danny Federici's flights of rough-and-tumble fantasy on the organ, and the hang-tough beat of Max Weinberg's drums, Garry Tallent's sinuous, serpentine bass lines and the roistering guitar of Miami Steve Van Zandt form the firm foundation. The wailing, extravagant sax solos by Clarence Clemens cut jolting...
Meanwhile, Burnham and his Daily News competitor, William Federici, were sniffing out the story independently. At one point Seymour offered to fill in Burnham on an off-the-record basis, but the reporter declined and went on to gather the details on his own. In a later conversation, Seymour made what he now calls a "serious mistake": he informed Burnham of the arrangement with LIFE. "We really treated him like a brother," Seymour told TIME Correspondent James Willwerth. "We considered him one of the good guys out to help reform this problem." Trying to protect Leuci, Seymour pleaded with Burnham...
Though it mentioned Leuci's role, the Times article otherwise was couched in fairly general terms. But the News and Federici came back with a fuller disclosure, including a series of vignettes under the heading CASE HISTORIES IN THE LIFE OF ONE COOL COP.

Fish must meet Navy's Gordon Perry, the number three seed, in the quarterfinals. He should win the match, and advance to play number two, Ty Griffin, in the semifinals...
Over all, the lopsided victory said little about the actual strength of the Crimson. "We didn't have to play new well to best them." Peter Briggs said. Briggs crushed Ray Federici at number one, 15-7, 15-9, 15-8. "But Navy should give us the test we need on Friday." Briggs added. The midshipmen return with most of a squad that lost only to the Crimson and Penn (5-4) last year...
