...Dynasty. In fact, as his players and many of his coaching peers agree, Shula has perhaps the soundest best-organized technical mind in pro football today. Studying films hour after eye-reddening hour, harping with drill-sergeant insistence on conditioning and the execution of fundamentals, Shula began to build a new dynasty. His 1970 team, green in more than the color of its jerseys (average age: 25) compiled a 10-4 record, gained the A.F.C. play-offs and won Shula his third Coach of the Year award.

Today Berliners, East and West alike, are enjoying a month-long festival of the composer's music to commemorate the 125th anniversary of Mendelssohn's death in 1847 at age 38. Herbert von Karajan led the Berlin Philharmonic down the high-flavored paths of the Scotch Symphony. The Radio Symphony Orchestra of Berlin gave the first major performance in 149 years of Mendelssohn's early (but mature) String Symphony No. 10. Even his mammoth oratorios were...
