Jack Garrity stuffed in Bobby Bauer's bullet center at 18:12 of the second period to spark the Harvard hockey team's 6-4 putdown of Boston College in the semi-final of the Beanpot Tournament in the Boston Garden last night. Boston University topped Northeastern 7-4 in the evening's sloppy opener and will face the Crimson in the final next Monday...
...blocks from the mission, a dark green sedan carrying three men pulled alongside, and one of them suddenly opened up with a machine gun. "I instinctively hit the dirt," recalled Sgt. Major John R. Forster, who was wounded in the hand. Chief Petty Officer Harry Green caught a bullet in the spine. Sitting in the front seat, Colonel John D.

The skies are guarded by Roger Ramjet, the seas by Marine Boy, the barnyard by Super Chicken. What they can't handle, Granite Man, Frogman, Coil Man, Spider Man, Liquid Man, Aquaman, Multi Man and Birdman can. Yet of all the offspring of TV's comic book...
...news hit Australia and the world like the slam of a bullet. At first, there was disbelief. Such things just did not happen in affable, easy-going Australia, and certainly not to its Prime Minister. What astonished many was that the ruler of so large a nation should go about so casually and unguarded. Holt had neither wanted nor received any secret-service protection-an individualistic privilege that no other Prime Minister is likely to enjoy. Not until long hours after Holt's disappearance did the numbing awareness of truth finally set in. The full impact arrived only when...
