...goals. But once this opportunity was missed, the Tigers began to take over. Throughout the next quarter, play slowly switched in favor of the home team. Bagnoli made one beautiful save near the end of the period to keep the game scoreless, when a Princeton forward broke free and shot for the goal from a distance of no more than 15 feet.

In its last test at Nevada Proving Grounds, before the stoppage, the AEC successfully set off a Hiroshima-sized underground shot ( 20 kilotons) that spouted a geyser of dirt but proved beyond doubt that the Russians could make important underground tests without leaving a scintilla of telltale fallout-thus leaving detection to highly fallible, faraway seismographs...

And when AEC said later that it hoped to conduct one more test shot in Nevada the next night, weather permitting, Mayor Poulson blew up: "We don't like to be talked to like children! If they shoot that, last shot, there will be repercussions!" AEC called off that, last shot because of weather conditions-high winds...
