Antiquated Dowry. Most observers agree that these matters are of no great interest to the majority of India's 600 million people, who are more concerned about the fact that the government has completely halted inflation (down from 31% in September 1974) and that India's three-year-old drought has ended (experts now project a bumper grain crop this fall). Indians will long debate whether Mrs. Gandhi was justified in proclaiming the emergency, but the Prime Minister has won widespread support for seizing a rare opportunity to ram through a score of social reforms...
...picture of Segarra. At 1:10 a.m., an officer raps on the door of the suspect's room, identifies himself, then breaks in when he hears sounds of the door's apparently being barricaded. Segarra, 24, dressed in his underwear, is there with his wife and three-year-old son. He spread-eagles himself on the bed and surrenders. He says that he last saw Velez, the suspected killer, at an apartment on Clinton Street. Thirty-five officers go there...
...suturing up smashed or amputated fingertips, Dr. Illingworth and her colleagues merely clean the damaged digit, hold it in position with a sterile splint strip, cover it with a nonstick dressing and a mitten bandage, and then let nature take its course. Illingworth notes, for example, that a three-year-old girl whose fingertip was treated surgically following amputation in an accident was left with a permanently deformed finger. But a five-year-old who received the Sheffield nontreatment after a similar injury grew a new fingertip -complete with nail-in just three months. Here...
...began as the race of the year when the two horses broke from the starting gate at New York's Belmont Park for the much-ballyhooed mile-and-a-quarter match race. The contest between the record-breaking three-year-old filly Ruffian, winner in all ten of her starts and holder of the filly's Triple Crown for 1975, and the Kentucky Derby-winning colt Foolish Pleasure was a perfect Him v. Her extravaganza for the 50,764 people at Belmont and for millions watching on CBS, which put up $350,000 to televise the event. Then...
With Foolish Pleasure winning the Kentucky Derby, and Master Derby running away with the Preakness, chalk players are already arguing over which colt is Horse of the Year. They could be wasting their time. The top three-year-old thoroughbred may not even have been in the starting gate at Churchill Downs or Pimlico. Nor is it likely to be at Belmont on June 7 for the Belmont Stakes, the third jewel in racing's Triple Crown. The superhorse of 1975 could very well be a lady: Ruffian, the fastest filly in memory. Before the summer...
