Neal Miller shared the spotlight in the drive with Kubacki, as he busted up the middle on a quick handoff for a 40-yard gain to the Terrier 37. Kubacki then unleashed a 24-yard aerial to Saxon, who made another acrobatic grab to set the Crimson up at the 9-yard line...
...often abused agents of the FBI and the New York City police were basking last week in the spotlight of praise for their rescue of kidnaped Seagram Heir Samuel Bronfman II, the recovery of the record ransom of $2.3 million and the arrest of two confessed kidnapers. But TIME has learned that the investigation is still far from complete. There remains a possibility that a third accomplice, a woman, may have been involved.

Szeryng, Fournier and Rubinstein rank high among the successful exceptions to this individualistic rule. In these trios, each player retains his own particular musical fist yet manages to fit it into his neighbor...
