...Band's routines may appear scatterbrain at times, but they always work out in the end. The Band disclaims any semblance to the hordes of uniformed, ultra-high precision bandsmen who blanket the field from one end of the other at halftime in Ohio State's nationally televised spectacles...
...Most sweet and worthy wife and mother," reads the Latin inscription on the posthumous high relief of Louise Miller Rowland, a New York judge's wife who died prematurely-and the sensitively modeled face confirms the epitaph. More characteristic of Saint-Gaudens' portraiture is the low relief of the children of New York Lawyer Prescott Hall Butler. To the two sturdy boys in their Scottish kilts, the sculptor has brought the understanding of a psychologist.

...rate among G.I.s in Viet Nam is so high that Brigadier General David Thomas, the U.S. Army's top medic in the war zone, has suggested a drastic solution: Army-run brothels.

His guiding principle, he says, was to stay flexible and avoid painting...
...question is what Northwest, which is the most profitable of the eleven U.S. trunk lines, wants with the money-losing carrier. St. Paul-based Northwest has earned more than $50 million in each of the past three years, flying high on routes that link the U.S. East and West coasts with the Orient. Boston-based Northeast is an odd amalgam of New England regional service, commuter runs to New York and Washington and vacation routes to Florida, Bermuda and the Bahamas. Its services to the South attract heavy traffic in the winter months, and little but heavy expenses the rest...
