...good pony can sell for up to $20,000. She had fun too. By the beginning of this year the pair were often seen on the circuit holding hands. Through the summer, the couple played in matches side by side. In a game still dominated by men, the sight of Cummings, her blond hair flying out from beneath her helmet, was striking...
Clearly, caution was the watchword of the week. A suspiciously high number of plane crashes, train smashes and the odd tourist-bus explosion seemed to give everyone the collywobbles.

As she came nearer, I could not help it: I bowed. "Mother," I said, "I just want to touch your hand." She looked up at me--it may have been one of God's subtle jokes that his exalted child spent...
