...holes at the remaining weights will no doubt be filled, but how well depends on a huge bunch of "ifs." If Pete Stanley--who quit the team at mid-years--comes out again next year, he will be a fine 167-pounder. Either Robbins or Winne, if one of them can get down to 177, would be very strong at that weight. And if Hal Pouser returns to school next year, he can fill...
...planet, a gold-plated fiberglass cone weighing 13.4 Ibs., did not compare in weight with the 796-lb. Lunik that the Russians put into solar orbit early in January, but its instruments apparently worked much better. The signal from its tiny transmitter was so strong that the 250-ft. radio telescope at Jodrell Bank, England could have followed it 4,000,000 miles into space if its batteries had lasted. The Russians reported that they lost their Lunik's signal (which no one else had followed) at 370,000 miles...
Surrealism requires ideas of some sort, as abstract expressionism does not, and it still helps give weight and variety to Tàpies' now wholly abstract art. He finally abandoned recognizable images because, he explains, "abstraction can touch many springs in the human spirit, whereas realism can touch only...

Elsewhere, the prospects are almost uniformly bleak. Dave Skeels, at 123, for example, faces a field that includes at least three men who have already defeated him this season. John Watkins, down to weight at 130, is likely to make a good showing and must be considered the Crimson's second best threat, although he is up against some rough opposition. Carl Kludt, who wrestled at 130 all year, moves up to 137, but will probably be too light and inexperienced to advance in the tournament...
