Harvard's Brooke Bailey didn't fare as well as her Crimson counterpart. Bailey could not overcome an early first-game loss to Tiger Jackie Moss and fell...
What will it take for athletes to think differently about steroids? Maybe more cautionary tales like that of Rhory Moss, the 21-year-old star quarterback from New York's Hofstra University. For six weeks last year, he injected steroids into his buttocks, not to improve his football, he says, but to look good in a bathing suit for spring break. Within weeks, he added 12 lbs. to his 180-lb. frame. But an NCAA drug test detected his steroid use, and his coach sat him out of the semifinals of the NCAA Division III championship. His team lost...
Carothers is not alone. Suddenly, a freshet of environmental publications -- some old, like Greenpeace, some new -- is striving for a mainstream audience, feeding on the growing awareness of a planetary threat. "The world is going to hell, and people are reading about soap operas," scolds Doug Moss, founder of E, a year-old bimonthly (circ. 75,000), who sees his competition as "fluff magazines that I wish would go away."

...leaders to the surge of mayhem. Like everyone else in New York, Mayor David Dinkins and his handpicked police commissioner, Lee Brown, seem at a loss for remedies to the worst crime wave to hit the city in a decade. "New York is in desperate need of leadership," says Moss, "and it simply isn't there." A TIME/CNN poll of New Yorkers taken during this summer's rash of killings showed that only 47% approved of Dinkins' performance, and an equal number believed he is no different or worse than his abrasive predecessor, Edward I. Koch...
