...Down Constitution Avenue, near the Justice Department, people were chanting and shouting. "Venting their frustration with Justice," as one Washington paper put it. How strange it would look if the building blew up. I said to a friend. At that moment tear gas bombs began to explode. Thick clouds of smoke rose, and thousands of people moved away.

...lyrics are rather less saccharine than most C and W songs, but a couple of the tearjerkers are still there. True country music has simplified the job of the songwriter considerably. The major themes of the genre are "home, sweet home," Mother, and the girl-friend who is off with another man. Creativity is not a criterion...

...teacher, a coach. or just a friend, Getch is what you might call a "character." Surely, no one who has known him will ever forget him. As he prepared his 6-1 Yardlings for their last three games this week, he paused to say, "It's been a wonderful 14 years." Then his thoughts turned back to Princeton, Brown, and Yale...
