...injuries, blizzards and brawls. The Lost Weekend of February 17-18 at Penn and Princeton started the bizarre slide amidst a torturous season-ending schedule of eight games in 15 days. Harvard lost seven of those eight games, including the Watson Rink clash with Cornell, when the Big Red rang up four goals in the last ten minutes...
Representative Sam Devine of Ohio was about to start home late one evening when the telephone rang. It was Jimmy Carter, seeking support for his veto of the public works bill. The call was a little grating to Republican Devine because the President had been making a virtual family project of unseating him in next month's elections.

Firemen pumped streams of water through a cellar window, sending rats, dogs and people scurrying to safety. Suddenly, shots rang out. Police lobbed tear gas and smoke bombs into the house. After 45 minutes, the MOVE members -twelve adults and eleven children-stumbled out. The toll: one policeman dead; seven policemen, five firemen, three MOVE members and three bystanders wounded...
