...only Dartmouth threat came at the start of the second period, when Richard Horton, faking beautifully, guided his team to the Harvard 30-yard line. There the defense, led by John Vinton, Robert Hunter, and John O'Brient, held firm for four plays, and Harvard took over...
...past four months, U.S. business has known no more indefatigable head-hunter than David Karr, 44, onetime legman for Drew Pearson and then a public-relations man before he maneuvered himself into the corporate big time as guiding spirit of New York's Fairbanks Whitney Corp.

In 1775, a year of lull before the years of Indian raids and counterraids began again, the average settler (perhaps, like Daniel Boone, a "long hunter" turned family man) lived in "a stump-dotted clearing of two or three acres in a one-room, earthen-floored cabin which had just taken the place of last year's half-faced camp." His possessions were what he had made himself or carried on his back from civilization. If he had had a cow, he had butchered her that winter to save his family from starving. He could count...
