...next major interest will be, no doubt, "Extra-Curricular Activities," of which the most important will be the Athletic Association. Her first meeting with this body will be Freshman Play Day, designed for those who "enjoy pushing a ping pong ball along the ground with your nose or jumping across the finish line in a paper sack." If she is so inclined, this event is just for her since "you have the fun, and the upperclassmen cheer you on." Another "AA" surprise is the Yacht Club, which urges the seagoing tykes to "throw up your masts and join...
Jordan's Foreign Minister Samir Rifai, a man often assailed in the Middle East as a U.S. puppet, held a press conference in Amman, and U.S. prestige took another nose dive.

After all that chatter, Sugar's workout with gloves was an anticlimax. A leather helmet complete with chin guard and nose piece protecting the old scars acquired in 148 professional fights, he lazed through four rounds. Sparring partners put on a fair imitation of Basilio's brawling style while Sugar put on a fair imitation of a man who knows how to defend himself but sees no point in overexertion.
