...poll. But that impressive finish wasn't followed by an surge of donations or endorsements. His approximately $1 million take in the third fund-raising quarter was the most he has raised so far, yet it was still only one-fifth the amount reported by libertarian long shot Ron Paul. And he has yet to break through outside of Iowa - in national polls, Huckabee tops out around...
...qualify for the 1968 Olympics was rocky as well. Parker’s eight secured the U.S. entry with a 0.05-second win over Penn in the Olympic Trials. The Harvard win fulfilled a five year-old promise made by the Olympic eight’s future coxswain, Paul Hoffman ’68, who taped a Mexico travel poster on the Newell Boathouse locker room on his very day as a freshman in 1963.

Though a strong elite element remains, the current England team owes its success in part to such stars as Laurence Dallaglio, Paul Sackey and Jason Robinson (sons, respectively, of Italian, Jamaican and Ghanaian immigrants). Expect that diversity to grow: As television helps fuel rugby's popularity from the ground up, a rising number of the nation's best players will emerge from more modest milieus than Eton, Harrow and the school that...
