...YORK, Sept. 17--The campus of Columbia University was relatively peaceful today as the Class of 1972 went through registration lines. More action is expected tomorrow, however, when SDS leader Mark Rudd and some 30 other students who where suspended by Columbia for their roles in last spring's campus-rebellion attempt to register...
After graduating from Ascension (with bow tie firmly in place), McLain went on to Mt. Carmel High, Chicago's "Little Notre Dame." Father Ben Hogan, a former English teacher at Mt. Carmel, remembers Denny well: "He had a lot of trouble keeping his mouth shut." And he was no whiz in the classroom, although he managed to maintain a C average.

Next to go were the gasoline truck and the tow truck. Four of the seven 16-mm. cameras went out of commission the first three weeks, and the film kept melting. Holden's human brigade got through unscathed, though, thanks in part to the Kenya Army Camel Corps, which rode shotgun for the company to protect it against marauding Shifta tribesmen. Holden survived partly on a daily diet...
