...Russians do it? One guess: unable to endure Schwirkmann's electronic guile any longer, Russia's secret police hoped, by delaying his departure from Moscow, to force the West German's removal to a Russian hospital, where perhaps with truth serum he could be induced to spill his technical secrets. Or perhaps Moscow agents simply wanted Schwirkmann out of Russia for good. If so, they probably succeeded, for the word from Bonn last week was that from now on West Germany's ace bug expert would probably do his fumigating elsewhere...
Another serious condition that can be mistaken for simple heartburn is a hiatus hernia-a defect in the diaphragm where the gullet (esophagus) passes through, just above the stomach. This permits part of the stomach to poke upward into the chest cavity and spill digestive juices into the gullet. Pope Pius XII suffered from a hiatus hernia for a long time before it was correctly diagnosed and treated, and the condition is by no means rare...
...typically English young girl's best friend is her pony, and that goes dapple for Princess Anne, 13, who comes from such horsy stock that Dad is sporting an arm in a sling as a result of his third polo spill in 13 months.

Motorists in northern Wisconsin can bid farewell to U.S. 51 near Woodruff and meander along State Highway 70 through country so studded with lakes that the road seems a bridge, and so rich in woods that they spill right up to the road's edge until the turnoff at Eagle River onto U.S. 45. U.S. 460 in Indiana meanders over hills only a spit away from Kentucky to the Lincoln Boyhood National Memorial, which includes the site of the log cabin where the young Lincoln studied...
Chris Pardee took the high jump as expected, but a pleasant surprise was Jack Spitzberg's 6 ft., 4 1/2 in. leap, as high as Pardee's winning jump but good only for second place because of Pardee's fewer misses. Spitzberg had taken a terrific spill on the asphalt track on route to qualifying for a hurdles hest, but scraped himself off the ground in time to make his second jump...
