...Palace-the Russians continued to display the precise teamwork that had given them the edge in Canada. But the Canadians managed to overcome the lack of conditioning that had marred their play in the series' first games. The 35-member Canadian squad included such high-scoring luminaries as Montreal's Yvan Cournoyer and Rod Gilbert of the New York Rangers.

Thus last week, the latest round of terror that began with the murder of eleven members of the Israeli Olympic team in Munich reached a new and deadly level. Before the week ended, 64 similar letter bombs flooded Israeli diplomatic offices in New York City, Ottawa, Montreal, Paris, Vienna, Geneva, Brussels, Buenos Aires and Kinshasa as well as Tel Aviv and Jerusalem; fortunately, all were discovered before they could do any damage.

What was more, the Russians beat Team Canada at their own game with what were supposed to be Soviet weaknesses: tough individual play and tenacious goaltending. Chastened by defeat, the N.H.L. stars roared back two nights later in Toronto to whip the Russians 4-1. Yet in the third game in Winnipeg, it took a last...
...such agent-diplomat is Nick Panella, 39, a graduate of The Bronx, Manhattan's Hunter College, and most of the world's drug trade centers: New York, Rome, Istanbul, Marseille, Montreal and Paris. Dark and compact, Panella describes his appearance as "the stereotype of the Italian wise ass"-a distinct asset in the trade. "Up in East Harlem," he says, "nobody's going to introduce any bright-eyed, 6-ft. Ryan to anybody worth talking to in drugs. But I fit right in. They'll sell to someone who looks like...
