Deadlocked 3-3 in a third period marred by three delays to repair the B.U. goal, the Terriers' John Bethel picked up a rebound off a drive by co-captain Jack O'Callahan and lifted a backhander past Harvard goalie John Hynes for a power-play goal that won the game...
...cost the Medenica team about $12,000, but they managed to break even when they sold their car at the end of the year. A normal weekend of Formula Ford racing costs about $500, Medenica says, including entry fees, a set of tires, gas, hotel and travel expenses and repair work on the car.

...operating room so fast they hardly realize that they have been under the knife. Surgical factories? Not quite. In the past few years, more than 70 such private, one-day surgical centers have opened in the U.S. Undertaking minor surgery of all kinds-from face lifts to vasectomies to repair of hernias-the clinics discharge patients almost as soon as they shake off their postoperative grogginess. The only radical surgery performed is on medical bills. By never keeping anyone overnight, they are able to undercut typical hospital costs for operations by as much...
