...Though pale and plainly sick the day she lost, Evert Lloyd made little of that afterward. Since she holds the other three major titles at the moment, a grand slam, admittedly not the calendar one, was lost too. Still her grace in defeat was heroic, in contrast to the style of the defending men's champion and top seed Jimmy Connors, who fled in a fury after his fourth-round loss to a big server from South Africa, twelfth-seeded Kevin Curren...
...Looking pale, Chernenko galvanized the conference with a candid appeal for reform in Soviet society.

The Victorian ideal of delicate, camellia-white skin has long since been supplanted by the bronzed-god look. But the trend has taken a mortal toll. Sun-related skin cancer is rapidly on the rise in the U.S. and Europe, and afflicting younger and younger people. The incidence of the most lethal form, malignant melanoma, though less directly linked to sunshine, has jumped tenfold in the past 20 years. Last week some...
