Princeton came to the bat first but for three innings could do nothing against Highland's pitching. In the fourth King flied out to Winslow. Then Ward reached first on a safe hit over second base. MacKenzie hit to Cook, who fielded Ward out at second. Whittemore threw low too low for Dickinson to catch Mackenzie at first and thus a chance for a double play was lost. Otto's three base hit to left field brought Mackenzie home, and the side was then retired by Altman's striking out. In the fifth, Brooks and Gunster struck out and Williams...
...lunar landing is to be only the first of at least ten. Tentatively, three landings are scheduled to follow within a year of the initial touchdown by Apollo 11 astronauts. Lunar modules (LMs) will be set down on two lowland maria, or seas, as well as on two separate highland sites. In Apollo 11, the astronauts will stray no more than 50 ft. away from their craft. Their scientific equipment-called EASEP for "Early Apollo Scientific Experiments Payload"-includes a solar-powered seismometer to check on moonquakes and a mirror to bounce back an earth-based laser beam to measure...
...seems to have at least one. Boston's New School for Children, now nestled in a tidy green and brown house near the Dudley St. station, seems to have been among the nation's first. After it got started in September of 1966, the Roxbury Community School and the Highland Park Free School followed, giving Boston a total of three. New York has at least two community schools, San Francisco one, Philadelphia...
...caps consist not of snow or ice but largely of frozen carbon dioxide, the principal constituent of the atmosphere of Mars. Some have suggested that the color changes are due to unknown chemical reactions, or to seasonal winds that alternately deposit sand from bright lowlands onto the dark highland surfaces and then blow it away. Their views have not been contradicted by spectrographic studies of the Martian atmosphere. Although some of these studies have detected traces of water vapor, the evidence has not been distinct enough to be completely convincing to many scientists. Now all doubts have apparently been erased...
...President Nguyen Van Thieu, Premier Tran Van Huong and other South Vietnamese dignitaries. Stoically, the visitors sipped from the brimming urns of mnam kpie, a sour-tasting homemade rice wine. Then they moved on to lunch in the comfortable former summer residence of exiled Emperor Bao Dai, in the highland provincial capital of Ban Me Thuot. The Saigon dignitaries, together with a host of American officials, were joining in ceremonies marking what they hoped would be the end of a tribal rebellion. It was a gala occasion, albeit marked by a certain sense...
