Through nine torturous innings the 37-year-old Milwaukee southpaw, working with only two days rest, dueled with three different Yankee pitchers only to lose in the 10th. Singles by Elston Howard and Yogi Berra finished him off, and the Yankees added the all-important extra run on Bill Skowron's single off relief pitcher Don McMahon...

...fluffy kind of soot whose intensely black particles, about 500.00 in diameter, accumulate radiant heat just like a blacktop road. When these particles are released in a cloud, she reasoned, the water droplets that capture one or more of them should grow warmer by absorbing sunlight, and should lose their moisture by evaporation to droplets that have stayed comparatively cool because they have captured no particles.

Eventually they should grow big enough to fall from the cloud...

Mexico also faces a loss of $12,000,000 in the year ahead, plans to minimize unemployment by giving smaller mines a break on apportionment of quotas within the country. Bolivia will lose $1,000,000, Australia $5,000,000. Some governments will have to cut back budgets to accommodate reduced revenues, may possibly slap on discriminatory quotas against U.S. goods in retaliation. But the State Department hopes the quotas will give an important push...
