Trailing 11-0 just one minute into the second half, J.V. Coach Loyal Park sent in the starting backfield for the first time. Quarterback Burke St. John wasted no time, hitting Jellison with a 35-yard pass. The swift Jellison then turned and sped 30 yards for the touchdown. Minutes later he took the ball on a sweep and scored again from the Harvard 40. The St. John to Jellison connection carried the younger smaller squad to a 22-11 victory...
...first mile and a half, Beckford, who needed penicillin yesterday because of an inflamed throat, kept up with the leaders, boasting her fastest split time of the season at 5:05. Up until about two and a quarter miles into the race, Beckford sped along in the top 20. It was all downhill from there, as the fast start crept up on her and she began to fade...
...helped to bring an estimated 1 million visitors from all over New England to join 2 million Catholic Bostonians in this most Catholic of American cities to get a glimpse of the Pope.

Last week Sir James Goldsmith, 46, pugnacious publisher (France's weekly L'Express) and multimillionaire food tycoon, set out to prove the cynics wrong...
...March another unmanned space craft called Voyager 1, traveling still farther afield, sped past giant Jupiter and its moons. From half a billion miles away, the computer-controlled robot radioed starlingly clear color pictures of the banded Jlanet and its satellites, including briliantly hued closeups of the stormy Jovian Great Red Spot that would not look out of place in a gallery of modern art. It also sent back new data about Jupiter's Jovian radiation fields and found a "hot spot" of plasma, whose temperatures reach 300 million to 400 million degrees C. It even discovered a thin...
