Good afternoon
- The old Washington Post printing and distribuiton building, located between the baseball stadium and the SE Freeway will become home to three District agencies. And the building, currently being renovated will include indoor bike parking and showers for bike commuters. (Page 52)
- Muhammad Ali got into boxing after his bike was stolen. "His new bicycle was stolen when Ali was 12. He rode the bike to a community event to get free popcorn and candy. When it was time to go home, the bike was gone. Wanting to report the crime, the shaken boy was introduced to Joe Martin, a police officer who doubled as a boxing coach at a local gym. Ali told Martin he wanted to whip the culprit. The thief was never found, nor was the bike, but soon the feisty Ali was a regular in Martin's gym."
Wow. Was a kid named Cassius Clay there, too?
