In 1972 Nixon named L. Patrick Gray to replace a very big name as the head of this agency.

THE CENTURY OF THE FIGHT

Peter holds DD #1 at the $1200 hole of The Century of the Fight & his $4200’s exactly 50% of Jeremy’s score; Barbara’s on the good side for $600. He’ll try another Trubie & here’s the answer this time:

“That would be the 15th Century”- would’ve been right if he had phrased it. He does find ’em all, the other of the rd. being pinned to the $2K clue for The Old Part of Town & is now the current 1st-placer w/ $7200, eight Benjamins more than Jeremy & Barbara’s improved to $2600. Peter wagers $4800 on this:

“Come with me to…” this exotic old section of Algiers- its name’s from the Arabic for “citadel”.

“What is Al Qibla?”…The Casbah got him.
