Only three months ago a prime candidate for the Republican vice-presidential nomination, John Vliet Lindsay, 46, the 103rd Mayor of New York and the holder of the second toughest political post in the U.S., was faced with the distinct prospect of political repudiation. The city's 2,000,000 Jews, once a cornerstone of his constituency, had turned cool and often hostile. Jeers greeted his name at synagogues; "hate mail" came into his office. City Hall became a fortress against an angry city, and Lindsay spent more and more time at Gracie Mansion, the city's elegant...
...most fully automated banking systems in the world. Called Giro-the word comes from the Greek gyros, meaning circle-the system will circulate funds within the country's huge post-office network.

(Teammates are talking about chipping in to pay her way to the big meets in New York.) The holder of Harvard's indoor mile record, Royce is an explosive runner, but still is not used to running the steady, aggressive race that Hardin has mastered...
Dave Pottetti, a flashy sophomore from Pound Ridge, N.Y., was actively recruited by Penn, Yale, and Princeton before deciding on Harvard. "Peerless Pete" is the holder of the freshman two mile record and was beaten to the mile record by a fraction of a second by his roommate, Jon Enscoe. Pottetti is easily the loosest, most relaxed runner on the team. His long-range goal is to make the Olympic squal as a steeplechaser...
