When the clash of the muscular giants was over, the biggest star of the weekend was the littlest player, 5 ft. 7 in., 160 lb. Garo Yepremian of the Miami Dolphins. More unlikely still, he is a left-footed, soccer-style placekicker from Cyprus who never even saw a pro football game until he was 22. Now 27, Yepremian felt more than the usual sense of rivalry going into the Kansas City game. Though he led the league in scoring with 117 points, he was bypassed for the A.F.C.'s all-pro team in favor of Kansas City Kicker...
...tubes that carry sperm. Some men later change their minds, but fertility frequently cannot be restored. Dr. Stanwood Schmidt of the University of California San Francisco Medical Center has a different approach. Removing no tissue and sealing the center of the severed vas by electric cauterization, he leaves the muscular wall of the tube intact. To reverse the procedure, Schmidt simply removes the scar tissue and rejoins the tube. Schmidt has attempted to undo vasectomies in 150 patients. Of these, 75% experienced resumption of sperm flow, while at least 25% succeeded in fathering children...
...often. Backfield Coach Carmen Piccone says: ''Why use a cap pistol when you've got a cannon?" Head Coach Jack Musick agrees. When Marinaro first came to Cornell from New Milford, N.J., Musick revamped his offense into a Power I formation to take advantage of the muscular tailback's bulling power and long, tackle-busting strides. Lining up directly behind Quarterback Mark Allen and Blocking Back Bob Joehl, he is the key to what amounts to a triple-threat attack: Marinaro into the middle, Marinaro off tackle and Marinaro around end. "Our offense is nothing...
Floodlit Muscles. This preference of the real over the ideal alarmed some of Caravaggio's contemporaries, but what troubled them most was his chief pictorial invention-the dramatic light and darkness that flooded his canvases. The eye cannot travel back into the gloom; it stops; instead, the muscular, straining limbs and backs that Caravaggio delighted in painting burst highlit from the picture surface. Form is almost literally shoved in the viewer's face. David with Head of Goliath, a painting of 1600 (which may, in the view of experts, be the work of a very close imitator), shows...
...actual telethon-Jerry Lewis' 17th annual for muscular dystrophy in 1968-was "the landmark in both our lives," according to Adler, that led to their present exhibit. "We sat up for the entire 19 hours, taking notes," he recalls. "Both of us are fascinated with TV when it is doing real things, as it is during a telethon." Among the other indelible events for Adler and Margolies, they say, were the Pope's 1965 visit to Yankee Stadium and, in 1969, the funeral of President Eisenhower. A couple of years ago, they began photographing images from the screen...
