...sultry night air, the chant from the Louisiana State fans was plaintive and profane: "Go to hell, Ole Miss, go to hell." Down on the field at Baton Rouge's Tiger Stadium, Mississippi not only had a 3-0 lead in the fourth quarter, but was insolently twisting the L.S.U. Tiger's tail. So confident was the Mississippi quarterback of his team's defense that he was kicking on first down, hoping that tired L.S.U. would fumble deep in its own territory...

...German market for art and antiques stands at more than $60 million a year, three times what it was before the war. Prices have doubled in the past two years. These startling statistics were underlined last week by the breakneck rush of business at the fourth annual Art and Antiques Fair at Munich's Haus der Kunst, which 'was for many years a U.S. officers' club. 0f Gothic figures and paintings, one in four was imported from the U.S. It was a far cry from the days just after World War II, when starving German families were...
