...surprise in the Penn offense was the frequent lovers ion-putting midfielders behind the met and moving attack men out front. McDowell said that the Crimson adjusted pretty well to the inversion, but added. "Some of our middies were a little lost back there covering them...
Twelve hours later, the astronauts again suited up, left Intrepid and headed back to check the ALSEP experiments. As Conrad approached the ion detector, the instrument sensed his presence and reported it to earth. "Can the guy with the seismometer hear me running?" Conrad asked. Responded Houston: "Looks as though you're really thundering by it." Conrad also tested the seismometer by tossing a rock-he called it an "extra grapefruit-size goody"-into a small crater. The instrument promptly signaled to Houston that it had detected the lunar version of the rolling stones...
...solar particles and setting up another seismometer to detect lunar rumbling, the astronauts will leave behind three sophisticated instruments: 1) a magnetometer to take readings of the moon's weak, though detectable magnetic field that may tip off scientists to the moon's internal structure; 2) an ion detector capable of determining the nature of charged electrical particles near the lunar surface; 3) a cold cathode gauge to measure the density of the thin lunar atmosphere. Powered by an atomic generator that will produce electricity from the heat given off by its radioactive plutonium core, these instruments...
...itself. The White House at first aided that impression, claiming the President had taken no part in the decision. Then Press Secretary Ronald Ziegler conceded that Nixon had approved it. In fact, the President had ordered the dismissals. As for the Berets, they jubilantly claimed to have been exonerated; ion their release, some even insisted that !there had been no killing, at least not in the legal sense of murder.

...that the Rumanians were "rude," and the Rumanians accused court officials of making "strange calls." The matches themselves verged on farce. The U.S. team of Arthur Ashe, Bob Lutz and Stan Smith so thoroughly overpowered the Rumanians that in the final set of the fifth match, with Ashe leading Ion Tiriac 4-0, the Rumanian star walked off the court without finishing rather than miss a scheduled flight to Washington...
