Marianne Kelly of Santa Rosa Beach urges the Reagan Mondale debate to tackle the nuclear freeze as the top issue, followed by foreign policy and strategies to reduce the national debt without tax increases. The reader seeks firm positions on arms control and fiscal policy.
The writer visits Justin, a 24 year old graduate student paralyzed in a Colorado crash, at his Austin home. They reflect on independence, humor, and life after disability as he navigates daily tasks, driving with assistance, and maintaining spirit despite limitations.
A long profile of Auburn University in Alabama, tracing its paradoxes of pride and defeat. The piece notes a rugged Land Grant legacy, the shifting curriculum, and public jokes about tractors and barefoot homecoming queens. It contrasts Auburns self image with Alabama and recalls Shug Jordan and televised losses at Legion Field.
Grimsley Johnson recalls Auburns long defense obsessed era with quotes from Toomer’s Drug Store. He notes 1957 national claims, probation, 1971 Heisman for Pat Sullivan, 1972 comeback win over Alabama, and a 10 year drought before a new title chase ended after a Kickoff Classic loss to Miami.
