...computers, with whereabouts and crime patterns flashed on video screens and mobile tactical patrols dispatched by a communications network. But law-enforcement sophistication may have come full circle. A federally funded pilot program in St. Louis seems to be demonstrating that there is still no crime deterrent like the cop on the beat...
...exciting even to think what film makers like John Boorman (Deliverance) and Don Siegel (Dirty Harry) might have done with this material.

The hero is Reverend Frank Scott (Gene Hackman), a sort of seagoing Malcolm Boyd who exhorts his shipboard congregation to "have the guts to fight for yourself-God loves brave souls."

Boston University, beaten 49-12 by the Hens this season, and Lafayette, downed 27-0, have already banished Delaware from their future schedules. Gettysburg, a 64-7 victim, wants out after 1973. New Hampshire Coach Jim Root was so stung by a 40-7 loss to Delaware...
