Another approach is the British "grid," calling for the creation of several self-contained neighborhoods-complete with schools, theaters, shopping centers and parks. Along these lines, Mayor John Lindsay's task force on urban design suggests that New York City, rather than pack even more skyscrapers into midtown Manhattan and Wall Street, should create a major business district along Harlem's 125th Street. Governor Nelson Rockefeller, in fact, has encouraged the move by ordering the construction of a 23-story state office building for Harlem. But New York, typically at odds with itself, is also building...
...announcement sent cigarette stocks jumping, though immediate medical reaction was wary. Columbia will set up a special corporation to handle licensing arrangements (none has yet been made), and the possibilities are potent indeed. If all U.S. tobacco companies used the filter at a fee of a penny a pack, Columbia would get $280 million a year. Whatever the revenue turns out to be, most of it, at Strickman's request, will go into medical education and cancer research...
Last week, as the Tour set out from Marseille for the climb up 6,273-ft. Mont Ventoux, Tom Simpson, 29, who in 1965 became the first Briton to win bike racing's world championship, was in the lead pack.

In his jersey pocket, police found two partly empty pharmaceutical vials-one labeled with the trade name for a brand of British "bennies"-and Tour promoters found themselves with the makings...
...times, the kinds of races the horse has been in, as well as his record of wins and losses. But with dogs it's the blind leading the blind. Greyhounds run the same kind of race every time: they have a preference for the inside or the outside, the pack or the lead, and there's nothing a trainer can do to change his protege's outlook on life. Times, left to the mercy of Swifty's attraction in a particular race, vary widely. And the dogs work out every day, so frequent racing doesn't dull their edge...
Perhaps not, but it is entirely possible that those who are most eagerly pursuing the nomination, Romney and Nixon, could find themselves somewhere in the middle of the pack when the nominating convention assembles next summer, and that the reluctant dragons, Reagan and Rocky, could be right up front. Said a Western Governor: "As Romney goes down, Rocky goes up. As Nixon goes down, Reagan goes up." There was even talk of a possible Rockefeller-Reagan ticket. To be sure, one Governor dismissed it as an "oil-andwater" mixture, and Reagan himself seemed to be ruling Rocky...
