...Bear Archery Co. The main tourist attraction is the new $350,000 Fred Bear Museum. Though Bear has stopped a four-ton bull elephant with a single arrow, shot polar bear in the Arctic and Bengal tiger in the jungles of India, he claims that "the wariest, craftiest and hardest game of all to hunt is the white-tailed deer of North America...
Following a pattern she began in Hollywood in the 1930s. Hepburn is always one of the first on stage, works the hardest and the longest without a break, and is among the last to leave. "She's Man Mountain Dean," says Jerry Adler, production stage manager. "She leaves us younger folks for dead at the end of the day."

The defensive ABM complex, which is already operational around Moscow, is due to be installed in twelve widely scattered U.S. sites. MIRV (for multiple individually targeted re-entry vehicle) permits a single launcher to deliver separate nuclear warheads on various...
...fighters were shipped to India's unfriendly neighbor Pakistan. It was, he remarks acidly, about as furtive as "mass sodomy on the B.M.T. at rush hour." But it is another vexing American institution, the State Department-which he considers short on policy, long on platitude-that Galbraith finds hardest to forgive. "Mindless," "petty," "pompous" and "late" are only a few of the acid adjectives he applies to Foggy Bottom, and for the most part he bluntly takes Dean Rusk to be its accurate personification...
