...game is big and sloppy and wonderful to watch. With Northwest ahead 14-13, Karl makes a fine pass to Bobby, but the ball squirts through his hands. On the next play, Webster's Rodney Trevino catches a pass and scores. On the next series, Bobby, now playing defense, is determined to make up for his bobbled pass. He hammers a Northwest player, causing him to fumble. Webster's Raken Stamps recovers the ball and runs it into the end zone. Score...

Today even younger players like Fred Couples, Peter Jacobsen and Tiger Woods have closeted that backbreaking motion, along with their steel-shafted drivers, in favor of the gentle power...
...week there was at least one reminder of how far the nation has to go. While Raul confronted his verdict in a prison cell west of Mexico City, 50 miles away, in a prison called Southside, a tightly wound, closely shorn 34-year-old ex-cowboy named Daniel Aguilar Trevino described a Mexican political system that is still dark, unforgiving and sinister. Aguilar is serving a 50-year term for pumping the fatal bullet into Ruiz Massieu's neck from point-blank range. In recent weeks, for the first time, Aguilar described to TIME how, working through intermediaries, Raul Salinas...
