Sampras is the best player in the world--if there were doubts before, there could be none when the tournament ended. Sampras utterly dominated the second-ranked Michael Chang in the final 6-1, 6-4, 7-6. Pete played so well, it was impossible to believe that Chang would have become number one with a victory...
...wonders of modern medicine, none has captured the public imagination as fully as organ transplantation. Since 1967, when South African surgeon Christiaan Barnard kept 55-year-old Louis Washkansky alive for 18 additional days by giving him a heart taken from a 24-year-old woman killed in an auto accident, these spectacular feats of surgical legerdemain--often involving teams of physicians toiling meticulously for as long as 48 hours--have won headline coverage and created instant heroes of patients and doctors alike...
...that was 10 times better than Clozaril?" Mount Sinai's Davis, on the other hand, thinks future schizophrenia drugs might well be based on altogether different chemical-messenger systems.

A running mate and some likely Cabinet choices would be selected, a shadow government to telegraph what an Administration of adults--as opposed to baby boomers--would look like.

None of the other major third-party candidates of the 20th century--Teddy Roosevelt, Robert LaFollette, George Wallace and John Anderson--came back to run again four years after their first race. The task is too challenging. But Perot did come back, did get on ballots in all 50 states and even renewed some personal credibility late in October, when the sad state of campaign finances and evidence of two-party corruption made him prophetic on yet another issue. More important, the 8% of the national vote Perot drew on Nov. 5 qualifies his Reform Party...
