...snake of parked automobiles wrapped around North Quinsigamond Avenue and up through the parking lots encircling the University of Massachusetts Medical School. The farther north you went, the more infrequent the cars got. There was an occassional tailgate contingent, complete with hibachi and cold beer, and the die-hard cyclist, determined to pedal 2000 meters every 15 minutes...
...HUDDLED around the campfire that someone had made in John Harvard's lap. It wasn't actually a campfire, it was Ogden's new Hibachi that he'd charged at the Coop the other morning. Ogden was certainly not chosen as our Regiment leader because of his experience in the ranks. He probably had no more than a few small marches under his belt, maybe a takeover or two, but clearly nothing that had made a headline. He was only chosen because he had the best equipment.

...declined, knowing I didn't need it tonight. It had been a long circuitous road to this perch atop the lofty pate, on the even of the biggest rally since the good old days.

Japan's bespectacled Foreign Minister Zentaro Kosaka, 48, who also played shortstop, hit two hard singles, shared best-player honors with MacArthur...
...getting Japanese, who have crashed the U.S. market with everything from cameras to transistors to hibachi charcoal braziers, last week were briskly redesigning their little cars for a full-scale commercial assault. The cars lead a broader invasion of the U.S. market by all manner of Japanese heavy industrial goods. This year Japanese exports to the U.S. will exceed $800 million (v. $229 million in 1952); close to $200 million will be in precision and heavy manufactured goods, directly competitive with products in which the U.S. specializes. Throughout the world, Japanese exports of heavy goods-turbines to Brazil, electric train...
