Blue Shield published the information. The result, says Polansky, was "an enormous amount of crank-letter harassment" as well as "slanted and distorted unfair newspaper publicity." Added the doctor: "The harassment has grossly affected my wife's health and the well-being of my family to the point that my receipt of these moneys, though earned and deserved, is simply not worth the retaining." With that, he sent back a check for $169,000 to Blue Shield and invited the agency to re-audit his books, and to "honor only those invoices which are supported to your satisfaction...
...Cannon. By the end of last season, Carew was swinging for the fences every time at bat. As a result, he finished the year with a disappointing .273 average. This year, for Carew and the team, statistics are improving notably. And much of the credit goes to their cagey, choleric rookie manager, Billy Martin...
...style of baseball that made him famous in his playing days with the New York Yankees. His team has already reeled off more double plays (128) than it did all last season. He urges speedsters like Carew and Outfielder Cesar Tovar to use their legs more often. The result: 16 stolen bases for Carew, 30 for Tovar. One day in May, Carew completely shattered the Detroit defense by stealing second, third and home in the span of seven pitches. Martin insists that stealing home, despite its rarity, is easier than a theft of second base because a smart runner...
Atlanta has requested but not received state funds for its four-quarter project. As a result, it is paying more than $1,000,000 beyond its regular $71 million school budget for the summer quarter.

Until this year, most working parents took vacations in the summer, when their children were out of school, resulting in summertime business slowdowns and production losses. Another advantage of the summer quarter lies in providing...
Because of the electrochemical reactions that occur inside a battery, it tends to give off internal gases and overheat whenever the charging current is drastically increased in order to save time. The result is a ruined battery. But by following a series of strong charging pulses with a brief reversal of current, the McCulloch engineers found that they could dissipate the accumulated gases and successfully recharge the battery. The sys tem, says a McCulloch spokesman, is comparable to the way a mother interrupts her infant's feeding with burping to get rid of gas in the baby...
