...WOULDN'T THINK someone who played that position in a campaign--the tack on the other candidates' seats--would sneak out so cravenly. The latest assertion making its way through the Massachusetts political rumor mill is that Tip O'Neill, who supports Shannon, pressured Markey to quit. That seems out of character for Tip, but if Markey is re-elected and starts receiving favors from the high command, it might be worth redirecting our present scorn...

...letters and finds out only at the end what her boarder is after. "Ah, you publishing scoundrel!" she hisses.

Mirjan Jarovije-vic, 15, a student at the Yaroslav Cernyi technical school, took the arrival of a visitor as a splendid opportunity to lean on his shovel and sneak a smoke. He said he had been chosen for the work detail because he was so smart that he would not fall behind in school. His volunteer supervisor, Muharen Corba, 27, was smart too. Good-naturedly he yelled at Mirjan and his friends, who were throwing snowballs and pushing each...
