...three people to cover an intensive-care floor of more than 50 patients. Those who are employed are often poorly trained for their jobs. As a result, many patients have waited hours for medical care. Cruelty to patients is also common, report Nader's Raiders, whose personal journals record instances in which elderly people have been abused by nursing personnel...
...called Year of the Quarterback, Plunkett stands taller than any competitor. Winner of the Heisman Trophy by a lopsided vote, he not only led the Indians to their first Rose Bowl bid in 18 years but rolled up 7,887 yds. in total offense, a new career record for major-college quarterbacks. Big and brawny enough to shake off tacklers, Plunkett is a classic pro-style drop-back passer with a strong, accurate arm at all ranges. Rival coaches praise his tactical knowledge, his knack for reading defenses, his ability to command "the utmost respect of his teammates"-all highly...

Says one scout: "He can judge the deep ball, can sense where the defender is and can make the big, game-turning play." As for running after the catch, one teammate says: "They ought to give Elmo a red light and a siren when he gets the ball...
English reporting has always been hospitable to murder, and Altick, who is a professor of literature at Ohio State University, has done his homework well. The indoor doing-in record was set by Surgeon William Palmer, who got away with no fewer than six and very possibly as many as 14 murders. He overextended himself with the deaths of his wife and brother shortly after he had procured insurance policies on them in his favor...
