Brodie, 37, whom many pros rate directly behind Namath in passing ability, ranks third in alltime yardage statistics, has had 207 career touchdown passes and was 1970's Player of the Year.

Improvements were also shown for cancers of the thyroid, prostate, larynx, brain, skin and bone...

Harold Kanavos, the president of Kanavos Enterprises, maintains that criticism of the designed 19-story inn from "a small group" is "based on vague, uncertain and ambiguous aesthetic concepts and preferences." The small group to which Kanavos alludes includes the Harvard Square Business Association, the head of the Cambridge Planning Department, the Cambridge Chamber of Commerce, the Harvard Square Task Force, the Sierra Club, the Cambridge Conservation Commission and the Planning for People Committee.
