Before the game the Crimson coaches stressed to their charges the importance of taking advantage of their strong punting game. "We lost that because we turned the ball over," Restic said. With Villanueva's punting average close to 40 yards (though it was 32.5 Saturday), the Harvard mentor figured it this way: "A back who carries for 100 yards on 20 carries, if he fumbles twice, you subtract 80 yards [in lost field position] and he's got a one yard per carry average...
DIED. Terence Cardinal Cooke, 62, Archbishop of New York; of acute myelomonoblastic leukemia; in New York City. The genial, owlish New York native succeeded his mentor, the commanding Francis Cardinal Spellman, and quickly adopted a more conciliatory managerial style, in keeping with the decentralizing principles of Vatican II.

Old-guard Democrats--assured in the past of Black votes due to Republican neglect of the Black community--can no longer be allowed to pander to the anti-Black features...
Unlike P.X. Dunlop, his rival and former mentor, DelCorso does not doctor his work for effects. He believes that to dodge in shadows or turn bright noon into a moody twilight is to romanticize war's brutality. Dunlop, on the other hand, brands his ex-protégé's snapshots sensationalist. Author Caputo clearly sides with DelCorso and with an ethic that combines the redeeming social value of photography with the woozier aspects of Zen: "His intimacy with his camera had to be such that his use of it at the decisive instant was reflex action...
