Bravo, TIME, for providing a true??picture of the very demanding sport of cheerleading. As a mother of an 11-year-old competitive cheerleader, I was glad to see that cheerleaders are finally getting the respect they deserve. Try explaining to your daughter that many don't think cheerleading is a sport or that a lot of people don't consider her to be an athlete even though she practices eight to 10 hours a week, runs laps and performs at football games and competitions. A girl who succeeds as a cheerleader is every bit as much an athlete...

But the fact is that mass murder is by no means an exclusive American institution; it has been perpetrated in scores of countries down the ages, from Caligula's Rome to the Congo...
...recurrence of infantile paralysis your statement regarding North Carolina would permit of a literal interpretation that the disease was State-wide in its coverage. To citizens of western North Carolina this statement, as well as like items in the daily press, is the subject of much concern. Were it true???we'd take it and like it. But, since it so happens that the number of cases of infantile paralysis in this area is below the average, and there are absolutely no indications of a spread, it would appear only right that you follow up your last story with...
