Good Sportsmanship and the Game of Life
This piece argues sportsmanship is learned through rules in athletic contests and can transfer to life when properly taught. It outlines four key elements of games that foster rule abiding, notes coaches’ influence, and cites Pontiac and corporate cases to show limits of transfer beyond sport. It concludes morality rests on obedience to rules and that good sportsmanship is best taught on the field or in gym.

Britain at the crossroads of revolutionary change
In London, May of The Christian Science Monitor argues Britain faces a peaceful or violent upheaval this winter. Trade unions and the Heath government could trigger a revolution through wage policy, tax shifts, or reconciliation of wage earners and capital, with mass strikes and political upheaval possible. The piece notes a broader redistribution of incomes and the end of the welfare state as potential outcomes, urging energy thrift and noting a columnist from Cape Codder reflects on coping.

Bennington Weather Cold Drives Workmen to Keep Roads Open
A bitterly cold wind grips Bennington with heavy snow creating drifts and hindering travel as plows and workers labor to clear Main Street. Vermonters await Gov Wilson to call a special session to repeal the bone dry liquor law and permit a new liquor statute. Christmas births bring two babies to John Grady of North Bennington, and a local contractor faults the Park Street bridge as a monstrosity, urging town responsibility. An eclipse, a lunar spectacle, thrills observers under clear skies, and obituaries note the death of Simon Moselsio, a Bennington artist and former faculty member. Historical notes include Calhoun’s resignation, Iowa statehood, chewing gum patent, and the Bangkok embassy hostage incident in 1972.
