...where will you turn? Perhaps to a Cliffie with an absorbant shoulder or you'll make a quick phone call to the familial fold. You can have a long chat with a college chum or get unsolicited advice from your Freshman proctor. All these solutions have their advantages, but no friend in need has the skills of your local shrink...

...hair, blending into white at the hairline, adds dignity to his rugged appearance. For most of his 59 years, Romney has been a salesman--now he's the politician with the salesman's style. In public and private, he talks with the same force and verbosity; his speech is quick and idiomatic, and, at the same time, earnest and humorless without a trace of wit or sarcasm. He smiles incessantly, but his laughs are usually reserved for uncomfortable moments at press conferences when reporters prick him with those touchy questions he has no intention of answering...

After rushing to a quick and crushing 20-4 lead, aided by the dazed Flyers 18 misses in their first 20 shots, the Bruins coasted in behind the 7' 1" Alcindor's various forms of intimidation under the bucket and the flashy ball-handling and shootof guards Warren (18 points) and Lucius Allen (19).

The Viet Cong cannot use aerial spotters to adjust their fire, of course, and are handicapped by American radar operators, who are quick to get a fix on their positions. Less than two minutes after last week's shelling of Danang, American batteries were blasting the Viet

...Russian-made AK-47, a stubby automatic assault rifle that is more rugged and dependable than the Americans' skittish M-16 rifle. The AK47, now widely used by Viet Cong troops, fires a 30-round clip compared with the M-16's 20-rounder, is light and quick-loading and has fewer parts to jam. It is so efficient that some individual U.S. soldiers have taken captured AK-47s for their own use in battle, relying on captured arms caches to keep themselves in ammunition. The Viet Cong boast two other 7.62-mm. sharpshooter rifles-one a sniper...
