From the very moment that Sir Robert Walpole, George II's First Lord of the Treasury, moved into it in 1735, it began to be the center of British power. Queen Caroline would breakfast there, and then return to the palace to persuade her weaker husband to do just what the gallant Walpole suggested. But in its varied career as the home of the Pitts, the Disraelis, the Gladstones, the Churchills and lesser men who have guided the history of Britain, one thing about the narrow, unassuming house has remained constant. Jerry-built as a real estate speculation...
...further conciliatory gesture, Sir Hugh Foot had written a letter to the exiled ethnarch of Cyprus, Archbishop Makarios, offering to let him return to the island once violence ceased.

Brazil's outside right, Manoel ("Garrincha") dos Santos, nudged the ball delicately. A French defender charged. Casually, Garrincha faked his man out of his shoes and set up a neat play in front of the French goal. Then Garrincha took a return pass and booted away at the corner of the goal. He missed by inches, but the crowd settled back with a satisfied sigh. The final score (Brazil 5, France 2) was a foregone conclusion. Brazil's soft, pinpoint passes, incredibly skilled dribbling and booming scoring shots added up to the finest play yet seen...
