September, the month of pre-season drills, should have improved Harvard's situation. It is now more than half over and the results have been numbing, to say the least. Three of the fourteen lettermen (John Tyson, Dan Wilson, and Will Stargel), all seniors, all vital to a successful season, are suddenly out of the picture. Four other key players--Richie Szaro, John Ignacio, Fritz Reed, and Tony Smith--will miss the entire practice campaign, and conceivably much of the regular season.

Prime Minister Harold Wilson called the attack "a flagrant violation of all accepted standards of international behavior." In New Delhi, Prime Minister Indira Gandhi expressed her "concern and anguish," but her statement was not strong enough to please members of Parliament, who filled the chamber with cries of "Dubcek! Dubcek!" Dem onstrations took place...
...been one of his students at Prague. When the war broke out, they slipped out of their homeland to work abroad for Czechoslovak freedom. A master of public persuasion, Masaryk traveled to the U.S. and argued the case for his country's freedom so well that President Wilson included autonomy for the peoples of the Austro-Hungarian Empire among his 14 points for a peace settlement in Europe...
