One is the long-range Spartan, designed to intercept enemy missiles 400 miles above the earth; the other is the short-range Sprint, whose job is to cope with any missiles that escape Spartan's nuclear net at levels under...

His teammates, Cochet, with his half-volley, and Borotra, with his catlike ballet at the net, were the crowd-pleasers, not Lacoste, whose stroke-production always seemed to be rolling off one of those assembly lines he has since dominated in the business world...
