Named Dark Mirage, the filly went to the post 15 times in 1967, won only two races and $19,906-barely enough to repay her purchase price and upkeep. Her first start this year as a three-year-old was equally unimpressive: she finished fourth, beaten by 7½ lengths. What has happened since beggars belief. Dark Mirage, almost certainly the smallest thoroughbred in training in the U.S., has not lost a race...
Dancer's choicest champ is Nevele Pride, a three-year-old trotter* who is hooked on hot dogs, beer and cigarettes (he does not smoke them; he eats them). Despite those hang-ups, Dancer calls him "the best trotter I've ever driven." Last week at Long Island's Roosevelt Raceway, Dancer drove Nevele Pride to his 30th and richest victory in 33 starts in the $166,746 Dexter...
Increasing numbers of guns are falling into the hands of juveniles; in Chicago last year, 1,293 youths, one only eight years old, were arrested with guns in their possession. Last week in Oklahoma, two brothers, 12 and 10, were charged with shooting a 49-year-old grocer to death. Startling accidents happen, especially around inexperienced gun handlers. A Detroit man heard footsteps in his home, saw the knob of his bedroom door open slowly, leveled his bedside pistol?and fatally drilled his three-year-old daughter through the head.

She also found the time and courage to help close down her husband's Washington campaign headquarters, shaking hands with each volunteer and thanking him for his effort...
...import boom is the result of a three-year-old U.S. Canadian trade agreement that, by eliminating all tariffs on cars shipped across the border, has created a vast if little-noticed common market now accounting for fully one-fifth of the two countries' $14 billion in annual trade. Traffic within that market runs both ways-the U.S. last year imported 318,000 cars from Canada, exported 239,000 to its neighbor in return...
