CENTER. Dave Thompson, Clemson, 6 ft. 4 in., 263 lbs. Big college centers are so hard to find that the pros often pick another interior lineman to fill the post. This year is no exception. Thompson, who played center in his junior year, moved over to offensive guard this season while filling in at center on punts and place kicks. As one observer put it: "He's so big he can stand straight up after centering the ball and become a screen for the quarterback...
...brief but defiant railroad strike. Even loyal White House men speak of a "trough." Unemployment has climbed to 5.8% and inflation continues unchecked. A major national undertaking that has Nixon's backing−development of a supersonic transport plane−is in danger of being abandoned. Former Interior Secretary Walter Hickel. pink slip in hand, goes on television to attack the Republican posture in the election: "I think the American people want hope."

A big, black, Franklin stove warms the cabin, burning lumps of soft coal that are washed from an exposed vein in the cliffs on the other side of the inlet and carried...
Perhaps Fairbanks can still claim to be on the edge of the last American frontier-it's the largest settlement in the Alaskan interior, the last real town before the roads end, the jumping-off point for the development of the Prudhoc Bay oilfields to the North. There are still a few old log houses on the main streets of town. But more conspicuous are the new housing developments where small kids ride bicycles with high-rise handlebars and long seats like the ones on their older brothers' Hondas and Harleys; more conspicuous are three perfectly-manicured Little League fields...
