Inside, Mr. Ed Hoffman, "the singing usher" from the Angel's Anaheim Stadium and the father of Red Sox shortstop Glenn Hoffman, sings the national anthem accompanied by the muzak of the park organ. Afterwards, Mrs. Eleanor "Stoney" Stone, who the scoreboard calls "a long time Red Sox fan," a mother of nine and a grand-mother of ten, throws out the first ball to Red Sox cathcher Gary Allenson.

Heart transplants are sometimes the only hope for people dying of heart disease. But such operations are expensive, donors are scarce, and the recipient's body often rejects the new organ.

A more dazzling option seemed imminent when researchers from the University of Utah announced last month that they were ready to implant artificial hearts in humans. Only one hurdle remained: permission from the Food and Drug Administration. But last week the FDA rejected their application-for the time being...

Some professors keep files on students' class performance. Some of these are, of course, strictly the private files of individuals or private organizations and to these you have no access. But with any file kept by any official organ of the University, the general rule is this: you have full right of access to all information excluding that to which you have specifically waived your right of inspection...
