McGugan also provided the only score of the second half--and probably the best play of the game as well. After a Dave Twite-to-Mark Gruchacz spiral put the yardlings near mid-field, McGugan took off around right end and won a 55-yd. footrace against the frustrated Yale defense...
...Reagan, he latched onto the bad inflation news to defend his own economic crowd pleaser: a $36 billion 1981 tax cut that more than a few economists fear could intensify the price spiral. Reagan had begun talking up a tax cut last winter and spring when the economy started plunging into recession.

And Reagan's preoccupation with "the growing menace from the East" in foreign affairs, together with his stated preference for superiority, shows a man burdened by a desire to return to the past, whose "new beginning" will have the same old ending...
