WASHINGTON, D.C.--An electrical current, alternating at a frequency of two million cycles per second and flowing through electrodes implanted in the frontal lobe of the brain, has been effectively used to relieve pain and suffering of patients with incurable cancer without causing major psychological damage...
...Hiri scored with both feet, with lobe and smashes, from close in and from far out, from flat on his back and from the out of bounds line virtually parallel to the front of the goal. A left-footer in the fourth period sprained a game Cornell goalie's left wrist and forced him to retire from the field...

At Aberdeen, S. Dak., in 1958, Dalkowski pitched a one-hitter and lost, 9 to 8. Against Reno's Silver Sox this summer, he whiffed...
