The Tennis Battle of the Sexes.
and a raincoat. With the rise in women's tennis Riggs saw the chance for a huge hustle and began making blunt statements about the weakness of the women's game. He challengedany of the top five players on the women's circuit to a match. Margaret Smith Court responded, and the two met on Mother's Day, May 12, 1973. Riggs, a slight,almost frail-looking man, 5-foot-5, with heavy black glasses, looked more like Woody Allen than a chiseled tennis professional, but he possessed an assortment oftri...

An Injured Home Run.
couldn't do it,” Gibson later said. “But once I got up in that cage, I didn't feel anything until I was going around the bases.” Gibson sent Dodgers batboy Mitch Poole to tell Lasorda that the slugger was ready if needed. Lasorda hustled to the batting cage to talk to Gibson himself. “As soonas he heard that I wanted to hit,” Gibson said, “he took off.” During Davis's at bat Gibson entered the dugout and sat in the corner wearing a helmet and holding ablack bat. Davis drew a walk, Gibson lim...

Récit imaginaire sur Night Hawks d'Hopper
And I could feel his eyes staring at me. I could feel his breath on my neck. I couldn't go back. - Yes, I said in a heartbeat. I'm still in, if you are? - Ha-ha darling, please, he looked at me amused. You're the one who's hesitating, I'm not. - I'm not. - You're nervous; you're blushing, you're trembling. You're hesitating because what you asked me to do to your own family is awful, he said as he was getting closer to my...

Blankers-Koen Wins Fourth Gold Medal.
Blankers-Koen's final event was the 4 x 100-meter relay. Her decision to enter the race revealed much about her character. Under Olympic rules, she could enter amaximum of four events. Even though she owned the world records for the long jump and high jump, she instead opted for the relay. She explained that a “team”victory would hold more meaning to her country and its citizens. Blankers-Koen's superb anchor leg clinched Holland's victory. Meanwhile, in the long jump,Hungary's Olga Gyarmati won...

From The Sound and the Fury - anthology.
'You'd better slip on your pants and run,' he said. He went out. I got up and moved about, listening to him through the wall. He entered the sitting-room, toward the door. 'Aren't you ready yet?' 'Not yet. Run along. I'll make it.' He went out. The door closed. His feet went down the corridor. Then I could hear the watch again. I quit moving around and went to the window and drew thecurtains aside and watched them running for chapel, the same ones fighting the same heaving coat-s...

Connecticut Yankee - anthology.
This missionary knight's name was La Cote Male Taile, and he said that this castle was the abode of Morgan le Fay, sister of King Arthur, and wife of King Uriens,monarch of a realm about as big as the District of Columbia—you could stand in the middle of it and throw bricks into the next kingdom. “Kings” and “Kingdoms”were as thick in Britain as they had been in little Palestine in Joshua's time, when people had to sleep with their knees pulled up because they couldn't stretch outwithout a passp...

Rivers and seas were formed to float their ships; rainbows gave them promise of fair weather; winds blew for or against their enterprises; stars and planetscircled in their orbits, to preserve inviolate a system of which they were the centre. Common abbreviations took new meanings in his eyes, and had sole reference tothem. A.D. had no concern with anno Domini, but stood for anno Dombei—and Son. He had risen, as his father had before him, in the course of life and death, from Son to D...

Excerpt from A Christmas Carol - anthology.
External heat and cold had little influence on Scrooge. No warmth could warm, no wintry weather chill him. No wind that blew was bitterer than he, no falling snowwas more intent upon its purpose, no pelting rain less open to entreaty. Foul weather didn’t know where to have him. The heaviest rain, and snow, and hail, and sleet,could boast of the advantage over him in only one respect. They often “came down” handsomely and Scrooge never did. Nobody ever stopped him in the street to say, with g...
