...wide-open split-T. But Barnes had two aces up his sleeve: spring-footed Halfback Kermit Alexander, who raced 45 yds. for a touchdown against the Buckeyes on U.C.L.A.'s first play from scrimmage, and Quarterback Larry Zeno, who kicked the winning field goal with 1 min. 35 sec. to play. The Uclan defense? It stopped Ohio State three times on the 1-yd. line. "One of the guttiest performances I've ever seen," gloated Barnes...
...Jimmy Clark, 26, a Scottish farmer who took his first turn at the wheel of a Grand Prix racer only two years ago: the U.S. Grand Prix at Watkins Glen, N.Y., by the margin of 15 sec. over Britain's Graham Hill (TiME, Sept. 28). In a hurry to get home and "get the feed in for the winter," Clark gunned his low-slung V-8 Lotus into the lead at the start, set a new lap record (110.4 m.p.h.), and stubbornly fought off Hill-despite a clutch that failed midway through the 230-mi. contest.

Obviously the faster boat in heavy seas and high winds, Pride's winning margins were conclusive: 4 min. 14 sec., 5 min., and 1 min. Often called the "Little America's Cup," the Seawanhaka Cup competition is similar to the America's Cup in all but one respect: the U.S. has no monopoly on it. Pride's victory was the 14th...
...building a 12-meter yacht, they designed a boat that in some ways was faster than the U.S.'s best. With out much experience, either in the class or in U.S. waters, Sturrock sailed her well enough to win one race, lose another by the barest of 26-sec. margins. As Sturrock said: "The best bloke won." But Newport had cheers enough for everyone, and as the Australians prepared to take Gretel home for more practice, they left little doubt that they would be back...
