Rumors attributed the failure to sabotage by Russian fishing vessels. However, Navy investigators uncovered nothing but fishing equipment and a Soviet protest when they boarded the trawlers...
...extra, out-of-class work, the parents (now incorporated as the nonprofit Lakewood Foundation) have expanded the program. Last week the foundation was conducting five French and three science once-a-week classes for ages six to twelve (sample project: observing the effect of radiation on hamsters), plus two Russian courses for adults and children, and a junior "Great Books," program that probes such works as Little Women and 20,000 Leagues under...
