Gambril, working the team hard in order to prepare for the big grind in February, is training through this meet as he did last week against Brown. The experiments with swimmers in "off" events will continue as well. Dave Brum well, primarily a breast stroke and individual medley specialist, will probably swim the 200 yd. free and 200 yd. back, while sprinter Tim Neville will move...
...good people--Kael (The New Yorker), Hatch (Nation), Kauffmann (New Republic), and Sarris (Village Voice)--each have an axe to grind, and make no bones about grinding it.

Coupled with Griese's brilliant passing (twelve completions in 17 attempts, two touchdowns), the Dolphins mauled the Bears 34 to 3. Afterward, Bear Coach Jim Dooley confidently predicted what Miamians already accept as a certainty: the Dolphins are bound...
