...worst accident of College Week III happened our last night when some drunk guy piled into a roadside rock with his motorbike. On the way to the airport Saturday, Ralph told us about it since he'd been there. He said the guy had had a big gash in his head, and he remembered seeing a big pool of blood. The guy may be dead...
...After I wrestled the best in my life for two days (Thursday and Friday), I was tired, physically and mentally hurt." Starr said. "Brundage really made me work and in the third period he opened up a gash in my leg when he threw me off the mat into the score-board clock.

...Santa Barbara Channel blowout, which discharged 336,000 gallons of crude oil, Californians faced an even worse spill last week. This time two Standard Oil of California tankers collided in dense fog under Golden Gate Bridge and drifted helplessly into San Francisco Bay.

Berryman, of course, is noted for this sort of thing, the seeming arrogance which some...
...Busily bobbing under Paduano's strong jabs, he repeatedly beat the Canadian to the punch in the early rounds. Paduano and the crowd of 10,767 soon realized, though, that the son had none of the raw, put-away power of the father. Though slowed by a deep gash over his left eye, Paduano waded through Marcel Jr.'s light attack and rocked him with solid left-right combinations throughout the late rounds. Petit Marcel, a 7-to-5 underdog, fought back courageously, but Paduano only came on stronger to win by a unanimous decision...
