...Officer Frank M. McAfee; $180,820 to School Administrator Beverly David, who apparently committed suicide in 1974; and $214,000 to sometime Florist Claude David. There were also overdrafts and accompanying loans of $88,000 to Wife LaBelle and of $99,236 to Son David, who was in his late teens at the time...
...vessels instead of the 29 planned by the Ford Administration's budget projections. Not since Pearl Harbor, protest some Navymen, have so many ships been sunk at one time.

Their first priority seemed to be to explain to Afghanistan's mostly Moslem population of 18 million that they...
Whether MIT or Harvard is better in terms of economics graduate schools, then, is no easy question, and depends a great deal on one's sources. As Perkins was quick to add, "Sure, eight or nine years ago, due to the nature of the late, '60s we certainly had problems with teaching and morale. But it would be wrong to impute those same problems to us nowadays, thus overlooking all the substantial improvements we've made since then...
