FOOD TRAIN NEARS GOAL: ABOARD THE FRIENDSHIP TRAIN - Reno, Salt Lake, Laramie and other places flash by as the Friendship Train rolls towards its goal on the East Coast.

S.M.U. thus clinches its lead of the Southwestern Conference. / WRESTLING? "MAIS OUI"!: FRANCE - The French call it "Catch," but you'll know it as wrestling—full of grunts and groans, aerial acrobatics, and beefy behemoths striving for those winning holds. In a word—it's terrifique! (LOCAL – CANADA) INTERNATIONAL BEAGLE TRILLS. (LOCAL – CANADA) THANKSGIVING PREVIEW.
