From Amherst coach Richard Wilson comes word that 'things haven't been going too well." The Lord Jeffs are "much weaker than they have been in previous years," he commented mournfully, nothing that his squad was especially hurt by the graduation of Bill Warren...
...Greeks, Cyprus is wholly a question of ideals. They are aware that the living standards on the island will almost certainly fall if Britain pulls out; but this practical consideration is unimportant, they feel, when set alongside the "principles" at stake.
