Jerry Jeff Walker. Ol' Jerry Jeff's routine of just being, heck, just ol' Jerry Jeff can be a mite wearing at times, but his songs grow on you. "Mr. Bojangles" is Walker's classic, but even on less distinguished tunes, you can count on some clever lines, a catchy melody and some good guitar playing. He is performing with B.W. Stevenson, whose "My Maria" was one of those forgettable songs you found yourself singing during economics lectures or unconsciously harmonizing with every time it hit your car radio.

Honda immediately informed the EPA that it is breaking ranks with most other car producers and would no longer seek a one-year postponement of the 1975 requirements. Company officials say that...
...Youngblood once took on a wrestling bear in a carnival and dispatched the beast with a single blow. Glover, a two-time All-America, has been unstoppable as a middle guard for the Cornhuskers. Scouts predict that he will be just as menacing as an outside linebacker. Though a mite small for that position, he may "more than make up for it with his speed, range and knack for diagnosing plays...
