...REGISTERING for the draft, it seems, is a lot like jaywalking. When you dart across the street in the face of a red "Don't Walk" signal, you do not expect to be brought to trial. When you decide not to register in the face of long jail term and a large fine, you do. But in their enforcement of the registration law, the Selective Service and Justice Department have treated non-registrants like jaywalkers; even if you cross there is not much chance you are going to get caught...

...next time the Crimson had the ball, sophomore back-up Brian White did the signal-calling. He gained no passing yardage on the series, but conducted a 49-yard march for Harvard's only score of the day, a five-yard carry by Vignali with 29 seconds left in the third quarter...

...pilot apparently did not see the bursts, because even after they were fired he made no mention of anything unusual when he contacted controllers in Tokyo.

Last week, in his debut as the starting signal-caller, Colombo directed a well-balanced offense, as the Crimson gained 164 yards in the air and 274 on the ground. If he lets his running backs go to work again, it may nicely complement the softness of the visiting defense against the run--472 yards and eight touchdowns on the ground against UMass in two games...

...Flight 007. The flight data inside would probably answer some of the questions about how and why the wayward aircraft met its fate. The waterproof container is heavily reinforced to survive impact and ocean depths down to 20,000 ft. For 30 days it will automatically emit a sonar signal that can be heard for up to five miles under water. Many of these boxes have been recovered in the past, but if the one from KAL Flight 007 is in Soviet waters it may never be made available to the U.S. or Korea for analysis. Even if it were...
