...ENORMOUS as one supposed ... Haystack Calhoun, the ever-popular 601-pounder from Four Corners, Arkansas, may be able to break four inch thick planks with his "Big Splash" submission hold, but he is no match for Johnny Alee, the 1132 pound man who fell through the floor of his North Carolina log cabin one hundred years ago. Nor can he compare to El Topicon, the Brazilian wrestler who is reputed to weigh an incredible fifteen hundred pounds, who is so enormous that he can engulf a two hundred pound opponent in his rolls...
Jewett's animal instincts carried him to a two-heat time of 86.79 seconds in the slalom and he took the giant slalom as well on Haystack Mountain's hardpacked course...
...ground to intercept and record the microwave transmissions. All this should come as little sur prise, since the U.S. and U.S.S.R. have engaged in such mutual electronic spookery for years. The Russians have merely caught up with the American capability to pick out by computer, needle-in-a-haystack style, interesting conversations from the many thousands bunched together in a single microwave burst. But sensitive U.S. Government phone calls are scrambled or coded, or both; codes are changed often. Adds an official of the National Security Agency, which supervises the U.S.'s electronic surveillance: "What hasn't penetrated...

...following the comet, NASA'S big radio telescope in the Mojave Desert will be aimed at Kohoutek in an attempt to bounce radar signals off the comet's nucleus (those echoes may tell scientists more about the size and character of the nucleus). M.I.T.'s Haystack Radio Observatory will try a similar experiment in reverse: it will study radio waves from a far-off radio source (possibly a quasar) after they pass through the comet's tail, in hopes of finding the spectral "signatures" of water or ammonia. If they succeed, the M.I.T. astronomers will have...
