That same afternoon, the Harvard women's team served notice that it has arrived by winning the first women's indoor GBCs ever, beating five schools in the process, the nearest one by a ten point margin. Harvard had two firsts: Mary Howard in the 440, and the mile relay team of Howard, Anne Fine, Anne Bryan and Rian Smith...
...undecided and 24 staunch conservatives adamantly opposed to the treaties and eager to bury the chance of approval under as many as 40 amendments. The White House believes the odds are in its favor because of two not-so-secret weapons: Majority Leader Robert C. Byrd and Minority Leader Howard H. Baker.

Two previous books based on his own courtroom experiences, My Life in Court and The Jury Returns, were longtime bestsellers.
