While the attack and midfield starting positions are still in a state of flux, Munro will probably stick with the same lineup he has used previously, led by Captain Dexter Lewis. Opening at the defense will be Jim Herscot, Roger Martin, and Fred Sharf. Mark Rhine will be in the crease again...
Once again Coach Robert Pickett of the Freshman Lacrosse team is faced with the age-old problem: that is, building a winning team out of players, the majority of whom have never seen a lacrosse stick before. To date, Pickett's warriors have a .500 record; but a 7-6 squeaker over MIT cannot offset a 20-1 holocaust at the hands of a powerful Deerfield Academy team...
...they thought the demonstrators would use steps at the ends of the stage. Temporarily caught off base, the cops rushed in from the wings. One attacker, twisting Cole's foot, was wrestled until he let go; another swung on one of the cops and got a night stick across the head. Then eight cops armlocked the five out of the hall while Ted Heath's 18-piece British orchestra valiantly played America (also the tune of God Save the Queen) as order was restored. In jail the five men were joined by a sixth, found in a parked...
...because there was a time they used to compare this country with the limestone country in Kentucky. There was a time you couldn't buy land in Menard County. The only way to get it was to marry it or inherit it. So we've got to stick with it. We're the backbone of the ranchers. We're not the Texans who got rich on oil.

Final Spurt. When the vehicle reaches 300 miles up, it will be at orbital level, above nearly all the atmosphere and pointing in the right direction. But its speed will be only half the speed required (17,000 m.p.h.) to make the satellite stick safely to its orbit. Reaching orbital speed is the job of the third-stage rocket. The final rocket will be small and will use solid fuel, which requires no tricky pumps or valves. It will fire for 30-60 seconds, depending on how much accelera tion the delicate instruments in the satellite can take without damage...
