...said Richard Nixon to his party workers during the campaign. So he said again when he appeared before his followers to accept and savor his victory. Now he could forget the defeats, both the hairbreadth miss of 1960 and the humiliating rebuff of 1962. Now he could put behind him the fear that maybe he was, after all, a born loser. Now he could relish the fruits of unremitting labor for his party, of countless fund-raising dinners and victory banquets and formula speeches in remote towns.

Anyhow the figures strain the imagination-but not more so than this potty tale about a bogus butler who sets out to burgle a Worcestershire bank. Connoisseurs of the old master's brand of daffy brouhaha will savor it to the last page.

On October 5, the Crimson football team locked helmets with mighty Penn, but though Coach Harlow's boys struggled like friends, they lost...
Today the country is undergoing another kind of invasion and faring far better under the onslaught. This year 1,300,000 U.S. tourists will journey south of the border to savor the strangeness and delights of a New World country that counts history in millenniums, boasts attractions as varied as jet-set seaside resorts and ancient Indian ruins (see color pages). What's more, with the Olympics scheduled to open in Mexico City on Oct. 12, this will be a billion-' dollar year for Mexican tourism-the biggest ever. Mexicans are going all out to make a stay...
