Sanderford, naval gunfire spotting team, successfully does 1298 sit-ups -- as the second battalion's answer to word that the official Camp Lejeune sit-up record is a paltry 649.

Fortifiedwalls connecting the seaport and Athens -- some five miles distant -- were completed in 445 B. C., the remains of which are visible today. From the port was carried all the sea trade which made Athens one of the great cities of the ancient world.

C., and presides in grand- eur over the teeming modern city below.
