...Corris has an obsession. He wants to whip Yale's Mike Buckley in the 200-yard breaststroke even though Buckley swam the fastest time in the East this winter, 2:12.9, which was 8.8 seconds faster than the record Corris set against Princeton. Corris, however, has not been pushed all year and has plenty of tenacity over the last 100. Look for him to stay a yard of Buckley's 1:03 plus pace for the first 100, churn into the lead with about 50 yards to go, and eke out the upset of the afternoon in record time...
...detailed comparison of the smoking and health histories of 441,000 men and 563,000 women, Dr. Hammond's crew of epidemiologists followed the medical history of their volunteers since the winter of 1959-60. The first result of their work was the world's most exhaustive survey of the relationship between men's smoking and disease (TIME, Dec. 13, 1963), a study that was a major factor in persuading the U.S. Public Health Service to condemn smoking. By now, the Cancer Society researchers have followed both the men and the women for four years, and have...
...unheralded Burns will face the toughest competition of his career, including America's premier half-miler and Olympic finalist, Tom Farrell. Farrell has been hampered by a muscle in his left thigh, but even if he scratches, Burns will have to beat at four other runners whose best times winter are faster than the record he at Dartmouth...
...over the actors' heads. Happily, this was not the case. Tom Rosqui is most impressive as he chills the audience with the power and insanity of Frantz's explosive moods. Priscilla Pointer deftly handles the shifts between the confident conniving, insecurity, and subservience' that is Leni. Edward Winter is pathetic enough as Werner, the play's only shallow character. And George Coulouris (not a regular member of the Company) is convincingly imperious as the father...
...camps in the upper Volga Basin, where they may see relatives three times a year, receive letters once a month, and be "paroled" only to a less severe camp. Since neither man is especially robust, long hours spent chopping trees and doing other heavy outdoor labor under sub-zero winter conditions could prove fatal. As far as Pravda, Tass and Izvestia were concerned, that would hardly be too harsh for what Tass described as "dirty foam brought up by the turbulent stream of life...
