From there, the pairings could be mismatches, since three remodeled squash players--Dave Sayward. Brian McDermott and Jeff Sawyer--plus football back Bob Blood hold down the three through six slots on the Amherst ladder. Unfortunately, the match will not count towards the EITA standings. But the travel expenses, at least, are minimal...
...next year all but one of its eight academic high schools will have 80% or higher nonwhite enrollments. Some 35 U.S. cities are setting up or planning magnet schools by building educational parks, large central campuses to which all of a district's pupils would travel, many by bus. John Ito, civil rights adviser to Los Angeles County schools, can list 14 different desegregation techniques, but notes that each requires some additional busing. Says Ito: "A busing moratorium would prevent integration from taking place. There is just no way around that fact...
...author's material is drawn largely from her own travel observations, which began in 1949 when she and her first child (a son, then aged four) set off for Europe. Since then, she and her son, plus three children born later, have visited 37 countries, 18 of them in Europe.

Nature Worship. Watercolor came fully into its own as a medium two centuries later-through nature rather than culture. The two great themes of English art in the 18th and 19th centuries were antiquity and landscape.

Lugging oils through the vales of Kent or the gorges of Switzerland was messy, and watercolor-carried dry, in little pans...
...arctic climes of the 49th state, where music normally comes only from records, radio, TV or walrus-skin drums. Never before had any major orchestra visited the Alaskan bush or the treeless tundra. Never before, in all probability, had any orchestra's itinerary been such a travel agent's nightmare-covering 11,000 miles by plane, boat, bus and snowmobile to give 36 concerts in six days. The Seattleites were able to do so by splitting up, for much of the tour, into seven chamber groups...
