...London Daily Mail's Angus Macpherson, who went in on the first PIA flight, described the New China as "a land of spacious loveliness cultivated down to the last inch, crisscrossed with power lines."

HEATHER AND GLEN (Tradition). Folk singers in Aberdeenshire and the Hebrides tell their tales, most often laments-for James MacPherson, dangling from the gallows when his pardon arrives; for William Chisholm. the young husband who died for Prince Charlie in 1746.

...with a stale one in Northeaster's tiny park. The left-field fence is about 250 feet from the plate and home runs are cheap. It should be a good opportunity for the Crimson's hitters to fatten up their averages if they can get a few hits off MacPherson...
