...little corner between the Boston & Maine Railroad's potato shed and the Hoosac piers. The Hon. Frank E. Mullen Express-way, a big green steel structure, zooms over part of the neighborhood, the Everett-Forest Hills Elevated zooms over another part. Every two or three minutes an MBTA train passes overhead and the whole neighborhood rattles and shakes. In the middle of the neighborhood is a dirty, unkempt, little, asphalt-paved park dedicated to the memory of a Congregational minister who settled there...

A few hours later, some 40 miles from Jaunpur, the 50-year-old president of India's second largest political party - the Jana Sangh - was found dead by the side of the tracks, with a crushed skull and fractures of eight ribs, an ankle and an arm.

...Dartmouth (1731-1801), was proud to lend his name to a colonial college where classroom supplies, according to local history, consisted of 500 gallons of New England rum. He would be proud as ever today. News reached the Dartmouth campus in Hanover, N.H., that a Canadian Pacific freight train had been derailed in nearby Vermont, capsizing untold thousands of cases of beer. One contingent of Dartmouth Indians made off with nearly 200 cases the first night, and a mob of them got away with 300 more the next night. The liberated liquid is now buried around campus in snow-covered...
