Harvard coach Loyal Park is wary of the combination of hitting and pitching that the Friars can throw at an opponent. "We've beaten them the last two years," Park said yesterday. "You have to wonder about the law of averages. They're a real good ball club, a veteran ball club. Their boys have been in this thing the last three years...

A few?but not all?of the Watergate investigators wonder whether the tapes were doctored in order to establish a later date for the President's learning of the Watergate coverup. One reason for their suspicion: all through the Watergate hearings, it was believed that the final payment of hush money was made on March 20; had the President...
