Opening-season nerves appeared at the start for the No. 1 Patterson boys basketball team on Monday, but they didn't stick around for long against Washington D.C.-based Coolidge. The Clippers' first field goal didn't come until the 4:39 mark of the first quarter, but plenty came after as junior guard Aquille Carr scored a game-high 27 points to lead Patterson to a convincing 100-76 win at the Spark in the Park Mixer at Forest Park. Myrek Lee-Fowlkes added 23 points and transfers Shakir Brown (11 points)

Laetitia B. Coolidge, an artist, world traveler and former Roland Park resident, died in her sleep Saturday at a retirement community in San Diego. She was 99. She was born Laetitia Bredow Kelly at Liriodendron, the 200-acre summer home that her parents built near Bel Air in 1897. She was the last surviving child of Dr. Howard Atwood Kelly, who was considered the "father of American gynecology" and was a pioneer in the use of radium to treat cancer. Her father was one of the "Big Four" -- with Drs. William H. Welch, William Osler and W.S. Halsted -- who founded the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.

- When Coolidge High announced two months ago that it was looking for a new football coach, one of the school's science teachers was sitting in a conference room in the building when a colleague asked, "Why don't you put your name in for it?" Natalie Randolph chewed on the idea for a bit. She didn't know of another woman who was coaching high school football, but that didn't concern her. To Randolph, who had played five seasons in a women's professional football league and also served two seasons as an assistant at another Washington high school, it came down to a few simple facts.

It is possible, some say probable, that a former New York City mayor will be running for president in November 2008, as the nominee of the Republican Party. And it is not impossible, some say, that the present New York mayor will be the presidential nominee for a serious and well-financed independent bid. The "possible" is Republican Rudolph W. Giuliani. The "not impossible" is ex-Democrat, ex-Republican independent Michael R. Bloomberg. Six leading national pollsters in August put Giuliani well ahead of John McCain, Fred Thompson and Mitt Romney.

The Fourth of July is over. You've celebrated. You've watched the fireworks. You've barbecued and stuffed yourselves on the chicken and the beef and the hot dogs. You've been to the beach. But did any of you pay homage to my main man Calvin Coolidge? I think not.Born on July 4, Coolidge has been maligned for his taciturnity and the total lack of any significant policies or decisions during his administration."He didn't do anything," humorist Will Rogers quipped, "but that's what we wanted done."

WASHINGTON -- Southern is second only to Dunbar in The Baltimore Sun top 20, but it's a wider gap in national recognition between the Poets, ranked No. 1 nationally by USA Today, and the unranked Bulldogs.Southern took a step toward closing that gap yesterday, routing Coolidge of Washington, 81-57, in the opening quarterfinal of the Gonzaga Classic at American University's Bender Arena.Next up for Southern (3-0) will be Christ the King of New York, ranked 11th by USA Today, in a semifinal today at 2 p.m. Christ the King defeated Forestville's Bishop McNamara, 90-67, in another quarterfinal yesterday.

Since the early 20th century, politicians and sports have had a relationship as close as, say, hot dogs and mustard. Tossing out the ceremonial first pitch at a baseball game, inviting the championship team to the White House and even sending plays to the head coach have long been part of elected officials' game plan to win fans themselves. So when Gov. Robert L. Ehrlich Jr. took his cuts in the batting cage before the Orioles' game against the New York Yankees on Tuesday night and spent a few innings in the broadcast booth, he was merely following a political tradition - albeit a bit more expansively - that crosses party lines.

Election Day is just around the corner, and to help kids feel more involved in the event, the Forest Park Branch Library is offering a program just for them. It includes timely tales and trivia about presidents and politicians. Taking information from books, including "The Voice of the People" by Betsy Maestro and "101 President Jokes" by Melvin Berger, librarians will highlight the more quirky aspects of the presidency and the presidents. Some tidbits: George Washington's many sets of dentures were made from lead, ivory, humans, cows and other animals.
