...Turkish Cypriots are holed up in the city's old fortress and another 3,000 control three small suburban villages. The far more numerous Greek Cypriots hold everything else, and for months both sides have been elbowing for better tactical positions, often building bunkers within 50 yds. of each other...
...began one night last week when Chin felt the call of nature. Soon after he stepped outside his hut near the village of My Tho, south of Saigon, a grenade launcher roared and sent its missile into his back from a distance that must have been less than 12 yds. The Viet Cong's 40-mm. grenades need to travel that far before exploding...
...only to beat the hapless (season's record: 1-6) Hawkeyes to assure themselves at least a tie for the Big Ten championship and, perhaps, a trip to the Rose Bowl on New Year's Day. Halfback Clinton Jones ran for four touchdowns, Dwight Lee scampered 14 yds. for another, and Hawaii's Dick Kenney-who kicks the ball barefooted -footed five perfect placements as the Spartans...
...bone-crushing defense has been the key to Michigan State's success. "Football is not a contact sport," Daugherty tells his players. "It is a collision sport. Dancing is a contact sport." In their collision with Ohio State last month, the Spartans held the Buckeyes to minus-22 yds. rushing-the first time they have ever failed to gain on the ground. Michigan, the defending Big Ten champion, got even less: minus-51 yds. Last week the Spartans allowed Iowa a grand total of 86 yds., 85 of them in the air, never let the Hawkeyes within 20 yds...
Kooyonga has fairways that are broad and flat, well-watered greens that allow approach shots to bite and hold, and a par of 73 over a respectable 6,578 yds. That doesn't make it all that easy; most of the 52 golfers in last week's tournament were pressed to stay close to regulation figures. Not Gary Player. Gary started the tournament by sinking a 10-ft. putt for an eagle on the par-five, 493-yd. first hole. Five birdies, a par and two more birdies gave him a fantastic 28- nine under...
