PAPERS TROVE By MAGGIE HABERMAN Donald J Trump, who said last week that a judge’s Mexican heritage should disqualify him from a lawsuit against Mr Trump, expressed doubt on Sunday that a Muslim judge could remain neutral in the case, comments that are unlikely to ease concerns among his fellow Republicans who fear his controversial remarks could hurt the party in November Mr Trump’s comments, made in an interview with John Dickerson, the host of CBS’s “Face the Nation,” followed his criticism of Judge Gonzalo P Curiel, a federal judge in California overseeing a suit against the defunct Trump University Mr Trump said Judge Curiel had a “conflict of interest” in the case because of Mr Trump’s proposed border wall with Mexico Republicans, concerned about how his contentious statements could harm their ability to retain control of the Senate and have a detrimental effect in down-ballot races, have struggled with how to distance themselves from Mr Trump’s language without alienating his die-hard voters In a series of interviews on Sunday television news shows, Republicans repudiated Mr Trump’s comments about Judge Curiel But instead of softening his stance, Mr Trump intensified it Mr Dickerson asked Mr Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee, if a Muslim judge would be similarly biased because of Mr Trump’s call for a ban on Muslim immigrants “It’s possible, yes,” Mr Trump said “Yeah That would be possible Absolutely.” When Mr Dickerson said there was a tradition in the United Continued on Page A13 Law Firm That Shielded Riches Had 2,400 Clients in U.S By ERIC LIPTON and

for Now, Faces Fall Test A Carnival of Life in a Field of the Dead Children for Hire, Lovers and Cockfights Fill an Afghan Cemetery By MUJIB MASHAL KABUL, Afghanistan — The children’s gathering point is the grave of one Bibi Jawaher She has been dead for 27 years, the inscription on her headstone so faded that you have to run your fingers over it to fully make out her name and the year of her death But the central location of her resting place, on a little hill in the middle of the sprawling Kart-e-Sakhi cemetery in western Kabul, gives the pack of young hustlers a sweeping view of potential customers visiting the thousands of graves dotting the mountain skirt There is the middle-aged jeweler making his weekly pilgrimage to his mother, who died of cancer; he pays extra to have her grave washed with the precision of a sponge bath There is the mother haunted by nightmares that the grave of her 15-year-old son, who killed himself over failed love, is engulfed in flames She comes regularly to check on the head- It’s time to stop calling Donald J Trump’s presidential operation “the Trump campaign.” It would be far more accurate to call it “Trump Productions Inc.” Mr Trump is not running a campaign in the modern sense — or what was the modMEDIATOR ern sense until about yesterday Rather, he oversees a prolific content production studio that has accomplished what every major media conglomerate is trying to pull off with mixed success It has managed to produce a huge amount of inexpensive programming that has consistently dominated the ratings and the conversation across the entire new-media landscape — cable news, broadcast news, radio, Twitter, Facebook and who knows what else With Mr Trump as its star, show runner and chief content officer, the operation has taken over the vast media space with multiple plotlines (War With Megyn Kelly; Peace With Megyn Kelly!), shocking comments (A federal judge can’t be fair to me because he’s of Mexican heritage!) and insults (Hillary belongs in jail; that reporter is a sleaze!) that keep Americans glued to their screens These plots often lead to negative portrayals of Mr Trump And the Trumpian content can at times be contradictory or even counterfactual, as in false But Continued on Page B4 stone, which bears a portrait of her son in a jacket and tie, and offers the children a small amount to ritually sprinkle water on it The sprinkling of water on graves is an old tradition in Afghanistan, believed to keep the memory of the dead fresh and to help absolve them of the sins they committed in life Right over Bibi Jawaher’s body, the children wait with their large buckets, filled from the well of a nearby shrine and carried in on their backs Once they spot a client, they rush in with smaller buckets, often fighting one another along the way But in the end they always keep to their unspoken code: When one reaches a client, the rest back off, immediately scanning the field for the next opportunity The children look for fun where they can, but their business is serious It puts food on their families’ tables They make about 10 afghanis for each small bucket they pour — the price of a loaf of bread, about 15 cents On lucky days, they will get much more in tips, some as big as $10 or even $20, forever marking that grave as auspicious, distinct in their memory They have come to rely on a harsh reality of Afghan life: After decades of war and staggeringly frequent tragedy, more and more Afghan families have some business or another in Kabul’s cemeteries, where an ever-larger slice of everyday life is now centered “Ajmal usually pours water without asking for permission,” said Jamshid, 10, who teams up with him on busy days It is an effective tactic: Once the water is poured, the mourner must pay “Who says I that?” protested Ajmal, who is also 10 “O.K., maybe I did it once Or two times.” Behind them, another boy was straddling Bibi Jawaher’s headstone like a toy horse “We don’t leave her dirty like that,” Continued on Page A10 Over the years, William R Ponsoldt had earned tens of millions of dollars building a string of successful companies He had renovated apartment buildings in the New York City area Bred Arabian horses Run a yacht club in the Bahamas, a rock quarry in Michigan, an auto-parts company in Canada, even a multibillion-dollar hedge fund Now, as he neared retirement, Mr Ponsoldt, of Jensen Beach, Fla., had a special request for Mossack Fonseca, a Panamabased law firm well placed in the world of offshore finance: How could he confidentially shift his money into overseas bank accounts and use them to buy real estate and move funds to his children? “He is the manager of one of the richest hedge funds in the world,” a lawyer at Mossack Fonseca wrote when the firm was introduced to Mr Ponsoldt in 2004 “Primary objective is to maintain the utmost confidentiality and ideally to open bank accounts without disclosing his name as a private person.” In summary, the firm explained: “He needs asset protection schemes, which we are trying to sell him.” Thus began a relationship that would last at least through 2015 as Mossack Fonseca managed eight shell companies and a foundation on the family’s behalf, moving at least $134 million through seven banks in six countries — little of which could be traced directly to Mr Ponsoldt or

Secretary THE NEW YORK TIMES, MONDAY, JUNE 6, 2016 By ANDREW POLLACK CHICAGO — Women with early-stage breast cancer could benefit from taking an estrogensuppressing drug for 10 years rather than the standard five, researchers reported here on Sunday, citing the results of a new study In the study, postmenopausal women who took a drug known as an aromatase inhibitor for an additional five years lowered the risk of their cancer returning or of a new case of cancer occurring in the other breast “These data are important to millions of women around the world,” Dr Harold J Burstein, a breast cancer expert and spokesman for the American Society of Clinical Oncology, said in a statement on Sunday The results “suggest that longer durations of widely available therapy reduce the risk of cancer recurrence and prevent second cancers from arising.” The study is being presented Sunday at the oncology society’s annual meeting here and is being published by The New England Journal of Medicine But some experts noted that the women who took the drug an extra five years did not live longer on the whole than those in the control group They said it was far from clear that the benefit of 10 years of an aromatase inhibitor outweighed the risk of side effects like bone loss and joint and muscle pain “It’s an option but not the standard,” said Dr Eric Winer, director of the breast cancer program at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston and an author of the study “I think this is one of those situations where you have a new approach that probably makes sense for some women and probably doesn’t make sense for a lot of women You have to be careful not to over-treat everyone.” Most breast cancers are hormone receptor-positive, meaning tumor growth can be fueled by the hormones estrogen or progesterone Even after the initial tumor is removed by surgery, women with this type of cancer are thought to have a risk of recurrence, albeit low, that lasts indefinitely “There isn’t a point at which we look at the woman and say ‘You’re done, it’s not going to come back,’” said Dr Lisa A Carey, a breast cancer specialist at the University of North Carolina who was not involved in the study So women typically take pills, either tamoxifen or an aromatase inhibitor, to block or suppress estrogen in hopes of keeping the cancer from returning The aromatase inhibitor used in this study was letrozole, which is sold as Femara by Novartis but is also available as a generic The question is how long women should continue to take these drugs Guidelines from the oncology society recommend women take tamoxifen for 10 years rather than five, because studies have shown this prevents cancer recurrence and improves survival Or they can take five years of an aromatase inhibitor after five years of tamoxifen But the majority of postmenopausal women now start on an aromatase inhibitor, not tamoxifen For those women, there has been insufficient evidence to recommend continuing beyond five years The new study provides some such evidence The trial involved about 1,900 postmenopausal women in Canada and the United States who had already received about five years of treatment with an aromatase inhibitor Many of the women had also taken tamoxifen for about five years before that, meaning they were entering the trial about 10 years after their diagnosis Half the women were randomly assigned to take letrozole once a day for five years and the other half a daily placebo After a median follow-up of a lit- A study finds that extending an estrogen suppressor could lower risks tle over six years, 67 women in the letrozole group, or percent, had experienced either a recurrence of their cancer or development of a new cancer in the opposite breast That was lower than the 98 women, or 10.2 percent, in the placebo group Using a statistical measure known as the hazard ratio, the risk of a recurrence or of new breast cancer was reduced by 34 percent The strongest effect of letrozole was to prevent a new cancer in the other breast Only 1.4 percent of those taking the drug developed one compared with 3.2 percent of those on the placebo In terms of recurrence of the original cancer — most of which occurred in bones, livers and other places outside the breast — there was a smaller difference between the groups, 5.7 percent for the letrozole group versus 7.1 percent for the control group Dr Winer said it was most important to prevent recurrence outside the breast because that is what kills people The small effect of the drug on such recurrences could explain why there was no difference in mortality, he said Some 93 percent of the women in the letrozole group were alive after five years, compared with 94 percent in the control group The drug increased the onset of osteoporosis, with 133, or 14 percent, of the women taking the drug suffering a bone fracture, compared with 88, or percent, in the placebo group “It’s really bone versus breast cancer, is what it really comes down to,” said Dr Carey of the University of North Carolina She said it was “not unreasonable to continue therapy on patients who are at higher risk.” Over all, the extra therapy was tolerable There was no difference in the quality of life between the two groups, as measured by questionnaires However, the women in the trial had previously had five years of treatment with aromatase inhibitors, meaning they were already likely to tolerate the therapy Many women not stay on the drugs for even the first five years because of side effects like joint and muscle pain The study received funding from the National Cancer Institute, the Canadian Cancer Society Research Institute and Novartis ©T&CO 2016 Longer Use of Drug May Aid Breast Cancer Patients N

University His latest entry in the debate is his new book, “The Rise and Fall of American Growth.” Mr Gordon contends that the current crop of digital innovations does not yield the big economic gains of breakthrough inventions of the past, like electricity, cars, planes and antibiotics The optimists are led by Erik Brynjolfsson and Andrew McAfee, co-directors of the M.I.T Initiative on the Digital Economy They argue that there have always been lags between when technology arrives and when people and institutions learn to use it effectively That has been true for a range of technologies, including the electric motor and the internet, which contributed to the last stretch of healthy productivity growth in the late 1990s and early 2000s The gains from current tech trends like big-data analysis, artificial intelligence and robotics, they say, will come Just wait Some economists insist the problem is largely a measurement gap, because many digital goods and services are not accurately captured in official statistics But a recent study by two economists from the Federal Reserve and one from the International Monetary Fund casts doubt on that theory Technology spending has been robust, rising 54 percent over a decade to $727 billion last year, according to the research firm IDC Despite all the smartphone sales to consumers, most of the spending is by companies investing in technology to increase growth and productivity But an industry-by-industry analysis, published by the McKinsey Global Institute, the research arm of the consulting firm McKinsey & Company, found that the march of digital technology across the economy has a long way to go The McKinsey researchers examined 22 industries, measuring not only investment but also the use of technology to change how work is done Some industries, like technology, media and financial services, were well along, while others, like health care and hospitality, trailed Only 18 percent of the American economy is living up to its “digital potential,” the report concluded And if lagging industries not catch up, we will not see much of a change in national economic statistics, said James Manyika, a director of the McKinsey Global Institute Since the financial crisis, the Obama administration has moved aggressively to push medicine into the digital age As part of the economic recovery package, Congress enacted the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act of 2009 The legislation provided for federal incentive payments of $44,000 a physician to shift to electronic health records The billions of dollars in subsidies were intended to accelerate adoption And from 2008 to 2014, the share of hospitals with electronic health records rose to 75 percent from percent, while the adoption rate in doctors’ offices rose to 51 percent from 17 percent, according to the most recent surveys by the American Hospital Association and the government PHOTOGRAPHS BY GEORGE ETHEREDGE FOR THE NEW YORK TIMES Dr Peter Sutherland, above, sees benefits to using electronic health records but says the system has slowed him down Below, two nurses, Mona Bentley and Sandra Johnson, work on patient records The government has paid billions in subsidies to usher medicine into the digital age Following in Dad’s footsteps requires a great pair of shoes “The government funding has made a huge difference,” said Dr Ashish Jha, a professor at the Harvard School of Public Health “But we’re seeing little evidence so far that all this technology has had much effect on quality and costs.” The electronic records, health experts say, represent only a first step toward curbing costs and improving care “People confuse information automation with creating the kind of work environment where productivity and creativity can flourish,” said Dr David J Brailer, who was the national health technology coordinator in the George W Bush administration “And so little has gone into changing work so far.” The government incentives came with timetables for adopting different levels of use and new reporting requirements, with the prospect of financial penalties for doctors and hospitals that fell behind The early goals for adopting electronic records were reasonable, health experts say, but the later stages were too aggressive Overwhelmed doctors protested, and the administration recently shelved the previous timetable, stretching out schedules and modifying some reporting rules Healthstar Physicians, the 50doctor group in Morristown, Tenn., where Dr Sutherland practices, was spurred to go electronic by those federal incentive payments, which now total $32 billion But the cultural adjustment to digital technology has been challenging Dr Sutherland and his colleagues evaluated several technology providers and chose Athena Health, which does not sell software but is paid a percentage of its customers’ revenue Healthstar started using Athena’s cloud software in 2012, first for billing and then for electronic health records Athena’s share is less than percent of the group’s revenue Today, Dr Sutherland’s personal income and the medical group’s revenue are about percent below where they were four years ago But in 2015, both his earnings and the revenue of Healthstar, which employs 350 people in 10 clinics, increased slightly, by nearly percent from 2014 Dr Sutherland decided he did not want a computer screen separating him from his patients So he opted for a tablet computer, making it easier to keep eye contact Not a fast typist, Dr Sutherland decided to use voice recognition software For six months, he stayed up until midnight most nights, training the software until its speech recognition engine could transcribe his comments into text with few mistakes Dr Sutherland bemoans the countless data fields he must fill in to comply with government-mandated reporting rules, and he concedes that some of his colleagues hate using digital records Yet Dr Sutherland is no hater Despite the extra work the new technology has created and even though it has not yet had the expected financial payoff, he thinks it has helped him provide better information to patients He values being able to tap the screen to look up potentially harmful drug interactions and to teach patients during visits He can, for example, quickly create charts to show diabetes patients how they are progressing with treatment plans, managing blood glucose levels and weight loss He is working harder, Dr Sutherland says, but he believes he is a better doctor Blunt measures of productivity, he added, aren’t everything “My patients are better served,” he said “And I’m happier.” BROOKSBROTHERS.COM A3 A4 N MONDAY, JUNE 6, 2016 JEAN CHUNG FOR THE NEW YORK TIMES A Korean Home for Japanese Who Have No Other By CHOE SANG-HUN GYEONGJU, South Korea — She spends hours a day watching the Japanese broadcaster NHK Her bedside table is stacked with Japanese magazines and figurines in kimonos The walls bear pictures of Mount Fuji Shizue Katsura, 96, is among 19 Japanese women who are spending their final days in an unlikely place: a nursing home in South Korea, where lingering anti-Japanese sentiment has helped keep the women in obscurity “There is no use looking back on my life,” Ms Katsura said “Home is where you are living Japan is a foreign country to me.” Thousands of Japanese women like Ms Katsura married Korean men during Japan’s colonial rule, which lasted from 1910 to 1945 When World War II ended and Korea was liberated, many stayed with their husbands in Korea, while others fled back to Japan, fearing violence from those looking to avenge the brutal colonial rule Or, as in Ms Katsura’s case, they followed their husbands from Japan to Korea Once in Korea, these women often discovered that their husbands’ families had found them Korean spouses in their absence Many also lost their husbands during the Korean War, which lasted from 1950 until 1953 By the time many tried to return to Japan, it was too late Japan and South Korea did not re-establish ties until 1965, and, even then, some of the women had no relatives to sponsor their return and resettlement Emotions run high when South Koreans talk about their country’s historical disputes with Japan, especially the enslavement of Korean “comfort women” in front-line brothels for Japan’s Imperial Army during World War II But society has paid little attention to these Japanese women, some of whom were abandoned by their families in both countries and had to live with neither a Korean nor a Japanese passport “When they arrive here, they all have made-up Korean names,” said Song Mi-ho, the head of the nursing home, Nazarewon, which takes its name from the biblical Nazareth “One of the first things we is to call them by their Japanese names When this happens, they are in tears, as if they are getting their life, their identity, back “Once we give their real names back, it’s amazing how quickly they regain their Japaneseness, the decorum, the way they fold their hands before them when they greet others,” Ms Song said While sitting in a wheelchair, Ms Katsura perked up when telling a visitor how she met a “kindly” Korean man more than seven decades earlier, when they worked in a power station in her hometown, Ebetsu, near Sapporo in northern Japan But she became taciturn when asked about her life in South Korea Her husband died of alcoholism decades earlier, she said She once raised tobacco and livestock in southwestern South Korea, and then sold vegetables

Yong-sung was operating orphanages in Gyeongju in southeastern South Korea when he traveled to Japan and saw what looked like Korean women protesting in front of the Japanese emperor’s palace They turned out to be Japanese women with South Korean passports demanding that Japan help them regain their citizenship and return home Mr Kim opened Nazarewon in 1972 as a way station for these women, providing them with lodging, as well as legal and financial aid A total of 147 returned home through Nazarewon, the last one in 1984 Nazarewon has since become a nursing home for women who either could not or did not want to return to Japan and had no family support After 70 years in South Korea, some women preferred living here to ending up at a nursing home in Japan “They like umeboshi,” Ms Song said, referring to the ubiquitous Japanese dish of pickled plums “But they can without it, but not without the Korean kimchi.” More than 80 women have died at Nazarewon during the past 35 years

military checkpoints, vanish inside navy facilities or are tortured by federal police officers Seldom are their cases investigated A trial and conviction are even more rare But are these cases just regrettable accidents in the course of a decade-long government battle against drug violence? A new report by the Open Society Justice Initiative, which works on ruleof-law issues around the world, argues that they are not Instead, the study says, they point to a pattern of indiscriminate force and impunity that is an integral part of the state’s policy And in the framework of international law, the study argues, the killings, forced disappearances and torture constitute crimes against humanity The evidence is “overwhelming,” said James A Goldston, the executive director of the New York-based Justice Initiative, which will present the report on Tuesday “In case after case, army actors and federal police have been implicated.” But in all but a few cases, the allegations languish, are dismissed or are reclassified “The impunity is a loud signal that crimes against humanity are being committed,” Mr Goldston said The Justice Initiative report is the first time an international group has made a public legal argument that the pattern of abuses amounts to crimes against humanity The finding is significant, Mr Goldston said, because under the lens of international law, an investigation would seek to determine the chain of command behind the policy The government of President Enrique Peña Nieto rejected the conclusions “Based on international law, crimes against humanity are generalized or systematic attacks against a civilian population which are committed in accordance with a state policy,” the government said in a statement “In Mexico the immense majority of violent crimes have been committed by criminal organizations.” The report does not dispute that last point Its analysis, which covers the sixyear administration of former President Felipe Calderón and the first three years of Mr Peña Nieto’s government, also looks at the Zetas, the most violent of Mexico’s drug gangs Their brutal ac- Mr Parral’s parents, Jorge Parral Gutiérrez and Alicia Rabadán Sánchez Mr Parral, who had been kidnapped by a criminal gang, was killed by soldiers in a raid in 2010 ADRIANA ZEHBRAUSKAS FOR THE NEW YORK TIMES tions constitute crimes against humanity as well, the report concludes The government said that in the “exceptional cases” in which public officials have been shown to be involved in the use of excessive force, human rights abuses or torture, they have been tried and sentenced But human rights and international organizations have argued for years that these cases are not exceptional Rather than ask the International Criminal Court’s prosecutor to begin an investigation, the Justice Initiative proposes that the crimes be investigated at home “One of the things that we have learned is that Mexico is rich in financial resources and human capital in these issues,” Mr Goldston said The Justice Initiative has been working in Mexico for more than a decade But the investigations “simply haven’t happened because in our view the political will is not there,” Mr Goldston said The report “explains how we have reached this state of impunity,” said José Antonio Guevara, the director of the Mexican Commission for the Defense and Promotion of Human Rights The government’s “understanding at the highest level is that what they’re doing is the right thing to weaken organized crime,” he said The commission was one of five Mexican groups that helped prepare the Justice Initiative report To break that impunity, the report proposes that Mexico accept international help from outside prosecutors with the authority to investigate and prosecute atrocities and corruption cases Mexico’s human rights crisis has commanded international attention since 43 students from a local teachers’ college were abducted by local police officers working with a drug gang in the southern city of Iguala in September 2014 as the federal police and military stood by “The impunity in Mexico and the circuits of corruption are such that they generate pacts so solid that international intervention is needed,” said Santiago Aguirre, the deputy director of the Miguel Agustín Pro Juárez Center for Human Rights One model for what the report suggests is in neighboring Guatemala, where independent prosecutors uncovered a customs fraud scheme that brought down the president last year The Mexican government rejected the idea “Our country has the capacity and the will to meet human rights challenges,” it said The government pointed to the drop in complaints to the National Human Rights Commission, to 538 last year from 1,450 in 2012 It also described recent changes designed to reduce abuses, including proposed laws and protocols to prevent torture and investigate disappearances A new law for victims is in effect, and this month courts will begin to switch from written to oral trials Critics are skeptical that the changes will make much of a difference unless they are carried out effectively As long as prosecutors in Mexico remain subject to political power, said Mr Aguirre, the impunity will continue “What’s the incentive for a prosecutor to be independent? None,” he said Without real investigations, there are thousands of parents like the Parrals, who trudge from one government office to another in search of answers It was only through a case file number that appeared on an army document 10 months after their son disappeared that they found his body Tucked into the archives at the state prosecutor’s office was their son’s government ID, which had been found at the ranch But his body had been tossed into a common grave An army investigation dismissed the case, and it languished with federal prosecutors before it was turned back to state prosecutors “We think the army is hiding something to protect the commanding officers from the atrocities they carry out,” said Mr Parral’s father, Jorge Parral Gutiérrez “We can see that the prosecutors are not free to act.” “The message is that the army ,” began Mr Parral His wife finished the sentence: “ has obstructed justice in every way.” THE NEW YORK TIMES, MONDAY, JUNE 6, 2016 IT’S THE COURT, STUPID! Confirm Judge Garland Don’t Let the Tail Wag the Elephant By Earle I Mack A s a lifelong Republican, who has always been realistic on social issues and conservative on fiscal and governmental issues, I would be deeply dismayed if we lost control of Congress because Republican hardliners in the Senate, blinded by politics, have lost their common sense They fail to acknowledge the danger facing our country by holding hostage the confirmation of centrist Chief Judge Merrick Garland of the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Let’s put aside the Presidential race and its hashtag campaigns Republicans in this country need to grasp the broader implications of not filling Justice Scalia’s Supreme Court seat I have impartially looked at the credentials and record of Chief Judge Garland, and I think he would make a fine Justice given the high stakes facing the Republican Party today He has been fair in his rulings, and has shown none of the ultra-liberal judicial activism that would endanger the Supreme Court’s balance By continuing to use the Garland nomination as a political tool, Republicans in the Senate are not only risking their credibility, but risking the loss of the Senate, the ability to confirm or reject future Presidential nominations, and possibly decades of an activist bench There is no reason to drag this nomination out any longer It is far better to confirm a known variable than to risk everything on the hopes that a long-shot Republican victory in November — despite polls — will offer a better nominee According to popular online odds makers — where people actually put their own money at risk — Hillary Clinton has a 4-11 shot of winning the Presidential election The Donald is 9-4 As a conservative investor, I don’t like those odds By confirming Judge Garland now, before we are faced with a far worse alternative, we can show that the Senate, with Republican leadership, is smart enough to make tough choices, and also send a signal to independents, millennials, women, minorities, and gay Americans that Republicans in Congress are ready to work, and not just perceived to be the party of no We must hold on to six endangered Republican Senate seats this year: Florida, Illinois, Wisconsin, Ohio, New Hampshire and Pennsylvania; five of which are considered either “swing” or “battleground” states for the presidential election and all are states that Governor Mitt Romney lost in 2012 By continuing to block this confirmation, we are not only giving Democrats an issue to use against these vulnerable Republican Senators, but worse, are potentially risking decades of a possible liberal, activist Supreme Court If we act judiciously, proceed intelligently, and use good political rationalization before the election — not after, Republicans can avert disaster, not just in the short-term but potentially for years to come George Bernard Shaw, the Irish playwright and Nobel Laureate once said, “The reasonable man adapts himself to the world The unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man.” Republicans, it is time to stop being the unreasonable party, by being immovably on the right It’s time to show the country that, despite policy disagreements, we are fit to lead and can make responsible choices Let this serve as a wakeup call to Senator McConnell and GOP leaders to take a bold leadership stand and confirm Judge Garland immediately; thus averting a devastating decision that could cost the Republican Party not only the Senate, but their own credibility and good standing Remember, it is not only conservatives who vote in general elections The Senate and the Supreme Court are in your hands Don’t let your legacy, the future of the Republican Party, and our country, suffer Don’t let the tail wag the elephant There could be more at stake here than the Presidency Earle I Mack is a successful real estate investor who served as U.S Ambassador to Finland under George W Bush He was Chairman of Victory 2000 in New York and Chairman Emeritus of the Benjamin N Cardozo School of Law Reprinted with permission © The Hill 2016 Join us @ ItsTheCourtStupid.com Confirm Judge Garland now for the sake of our children and grandchildren God Bless America Paid for by It’s the Court Stupid PAC Not Authorized by Any Candidate or Candidate’s Committee ItsTheCourtStupid.com N A5 A6 THE NEW YORK TIMES INTERNATIONAL MONDAY, JUNE 6, 2016 N A Korean Home Shelters Blacklisted for Covering Two Sides of Ukraine War Japanese With No Other REPORTER’S NOTEBOOK By ANDREW E KRAMER I have had guns pointed at me, slept in a shipping container and walked past the corpses of shelling victims since the separatist insurgency in eastern Ukraine began two years ago But I had never been blacklisted as a terrorist before So when my name recently appeared on a “terrorist” list of journalists published by a website with close ties to the Ukrainian government, I viewed it with a mix of trepidation and sarcasm Trepidation because it suggested powerful people in Ukraine, a democracy that aspires to the free flow of information, were going after me and others on the list for simply doing our jobs: reporting both sides of the war, including the pro-Russian rebel side And sarcasm because, this being Ukraine, the list was not likely to have much credibility elsewhere I have not, for example, had any trouble flying after appearing on what may be the world’s first list of terrorist journalists It is also not a secret that I and other reporters have reported from rebel territory; our publications and broadcast outlets regularly use our names and note where we are The list, published by a Ukrainian nationalist website called Myrotvorets, or the Peacemaker, appeared to have been born out of a simmering frustration Hard-liners in Ukraine have been furious at the foreign press for some time now, arguing that any coverage of the rebels from their home base in the east played into Russia’s powerful propaganda machine Russia has portrayed residents in the breakaway regions as victims of an unjustified Ukrainian military assault by a Western-backed “fascist” government in Kiev The list is a compilation of reporters and others who applied for press passes to work in territory controlled by the Donetsk People’s Republic, Ukraine’s main enemy in the two-year-old war in the east Applying for accreditation from Russianbacked rebels, according to the website, was enough to be branded a “terrorist accomplice.” The website said it had obtained the list of names, and personal information including From Page A4 MAXIM SHEMETOV/REUTERS Pro-Russian rebels in Donetsk in 2014 prepared to listen to President Vladimir V Putin of Russia emails, from hackers who had stolen the rebels’ data Groups supporting journalists quickly condemned the publication of the names — and in some cases home addresses — for seeming to invite violence against reporters A pro-Russian commentator living in Kiev, Oles Buzina, whose home address was publicized in a Myrotvorets post last year, was shot and killed on a street not far from his home days later But this time, the site was publishing names and contact details for 5,412 journalists, drivers, fixers, soundmen and translators Not all of us can be rubbed out Why were so many reporters accredited to cover the war in Donetsk? Because it served the media strategy of the Russiabacked rebels About two-thirds of the journalists and support staff on the list were Russian nationals or locals from eastern Ukraine, who might be expected to be sympathetic to the rebels In addition, 1,816 foreign reporters showed up over the two years and were accredited, according to the list The ease of accrediting ensured, for example, broad coverage of stray Ukrainian artillery strikes hitting the city and some- times killing civilians, helping discredit Ukraine’s actions to win back territory The media strategy seems right out of Russia’s media playbook; Western military analysts have noted Russia’s savvy at what they have called “hybrid wars” that blend lethal force with aggressive (and positive) press coverage For reporters, press passes to travel in rebel-held territory were invaluable for avoiding arrest, duct-taped hands or detention in a basement To get the coveted slips of paper, journalists visited Angela, a witty woman known as the “accreditation queen.” Angela worked in a seventhfloor office of the separatist headquarters in central Donetsk Reaching her space meant trekking up a dark stairwell festooned with coarse propaganda for the anti-Western cause: One drawing showed President Obama’s head on the body of a monkey; another showed a Ukrainian politician, Arseniy P Yatsenyuk, dressed in a Nazi uniform With few exceptions, Angela cheerily printed out press passes for anyone who asked — other than reporters from governmentcontrolled Ukraine Many Ukrainians remain outraged that, as they see it, the Russian-backed groups have our great big pillow SALE We're all about comfort How you choose the right pillow?

2016 N Swiss Voters Reject Plan for Guaranteed Income By RAPHAEL MINDER ALEXEY DRUZHININ/AGENCE FRANCE-PRESSE — GETTY IMAGES President Vladimir V Putin of Russia, left, with Benjamin Netanyahu, the prime minister of Israel, in Jerusalem in 2012 Russia to Return to Israel Tank Used in 1982 Battle By ISABEL KERSHNER JERUSALEM — In a sign of growing cooperation, President Vladimir V Putin of Russia has agreed to return to Israel a tank that was seized during a disastrous 1982 battle with Syrian forces in southern Lebanon, an episode that left three Israeli soldiers missing in action and has haunted Israel for more than 30 years The gesture of good will was announced before a visit to Moscow, starting Monday, by Israel’s prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, to commemorate 25 years since the resumption of diplomatic relations between Israel and Russia The Soviet Union had severed ties in 1967, after the Arab-Israeli War This will be Mr Netanyahu’s third visit to Moscow since September After his most recent visit, in April, Mr Netanyahu said the two sides also planned to sign an agreement dealing with state pensions for tens of thousands of immigrants to Israel from the former Soviet Union The April visit focused on security coordination between the Israeli and Russian militaries to avoid any mishaps as they operate in the Middle East But it is the promised return of the tank that will have symbolic value for many Israelis “There has been nothing to remember the boys by and no grave to visit for 34 years now,” Mr Netanyahu said, referring to the families of the missing soldiers “The tank is the only evidence of the battle, and now it is coming back to Israel thanks to President Putin’s response to my request.” Mr Netanyahu said last week that Mr Putin had signed an order to return the tank, which the Syrians sent to Moscow for examination, and which has been on display at the armored corps museum in Moscow Mr Netanyahu said he had raised the issue during his meeting with Mr Putin at the Kremlin in April after a request from the chief of staff of the Israeli military, Lt Gen Gadi Eisenkot A delegation from the Israeli military’s armored corps has been in Moscow discussing the logistics for transferring the tank The battle near the village of Sultan Yakoub, in the eastern Bekaa, occurred in the opening days of an Israeli invasion An Israeli armored brigade entered a narrow valley, apparently unaware that Syrian forces were positioned in the surrounding hills Survivors described scenes of chaos as tanks were abandoned and soldiers tried to escape on foot A rescue mission was attempted, and about 20 Israeli soldiers were killed in the clash One of the captured Israeli tanks was later paraded through the streets of Damascus, according to news reports at the time The three Israeli soldiers — Zachary Baumel, Zvi Feldman and Yehudah Katz — were in two tanks when they were ambushed, according to relatives Mr Baumel was in one, and Mr Feldman and Mr Katz were in another Israeli officials could not immediately specify which tank the Russians had pledged to return Zvi Magen, Israel’s ambassador to Moscow in the late 1990s, said he had been shown the Americanmade tank at the museum The Syrians had transferred it because the Soviets wanted to study its defense and weapons systems, he said Mr Magen said he had asked for details about anything that was found in the tank, but had been told that it arrived without any signs of the soldiers who had been in it, or of any remains Mr Magen, who is now a senior research fellow at the Institute for National Security Studies at Tel Aviv University, said the more important background to what he called the “confidence-building measures” of the return of the tank and the pension deal were Russian and Israeli interests given the “new reality” of Russia’s presence in Syria Still, the families of the three soldiers have never stopped searching for information about their fate “They were probably taken in the battlefield,” Osna Haberman, the sister of Mr Baumel, said in a telephone interview on Sunday “There is still a chance that he could be sitting somewhere in a Syrian jail.” Mr Baumel, 22 at the time of the battle, also held American citizenship, having moved to Israel with his family from Brooklyn in 1970 Ms Haberman, a high school teacher who lives in Jerusalem, said Mr Netanyahu called her a week ago to tell her of Mr Putin’s promise The families believe that it was the tank that Mr Katz and Mr Feldman had been riding in, Ms Haberman said “In any event,” she said, according to witness accounts the three young men were captured after they abandoned their tanks “It doesn’t solve our problem,” Ms Haberman said of the Russian gesture “We are waiting for information Something solid, like an eyewitness report Nothing else will serve.” HOT SUMMER SALE OUR BIGGEST SALE OF THE SEASON ®SCABAL Summer Specials SUMMER SUITS SUMMER JACKETS SUMMER PANTS TUXEDOS

proposal to guarantee an income to Switzerland’s residents, whether or not they are employed, an idea that has also been raised in other countries amid an intensifying debate over wealth disparities and dwindling employment opportunities About 77 percent of voters rejected a plan to give a basic monthly income of 2,500 Swiss francs, or about $2,560, to each adult, and 625 francs for each child under 18, regardless of employment status, to fight poverty and social inequality and guarantee a “dignified” life to everyone Switzerland was the first country to vote on such a universal basic income plan, but other countries and cities either have been considering the idea or have started trial programs Finland is set to introduce a pilot program for a random sample of about 10,000 adults who will each receive a monthly handout of 550 euros, about $625 The intent is to turn the two-year trial into a national plan if it proves successful In the Netherlands, Utrecht is leading a group of municipalities that are experimenting with similar pilot projects In the United States, the idea of a guaranteed income has gained some traction in the run-up to the presidential election in November It has been promoted by some Democrats who are demanding more social justice, but it also has some right-wing advocates who see it as a better alternative to government welfare programs In Switzerland, opponents warned that the proposal would derail an economic model that, far from showing signs of near-collapse, has allowed the country to remain among those with the highest living standards in the world, even with a growing and aging population Switzerland has an unemployment rate of around 3.5 percent, less than half the average in the European Union The backers of the plan did not detail how it would be financed But the Swiss government and almost all the main political parties had urged voters to turn down the guaranteed income plan, warning that it would require raising an additional 25 billion Swiss francs a year through deep spending cuts or tax increases Some opponents of a Swiss guaranteed income also attacked it as a return to Marxist economics, even if the idea has far older roots, dating to the 16th-century writings of Thomas More and the 18th-century works of Thomas Paine ALEXANDRA WEY/EUROPEAN PRESSPHOTO AGENCY Backers gathered in Basel, Switzerland, to celebrate the votes an income plan received Sunday After World War II, the concept of a guaranteed income was promoted as a way of redistributing income by some free-market economists led by Milton Friedman, who in part argued that it would be more efficient than the bureaucracy of running dozens of separate programs to help the poor Still, the current discussion, in Switzerland and elsewhere, has been not only about wealth redistribution but also about how modern societies can continue to create jobs while pushing technological advances such as factory robots and driverless trucks Campaigners in favor of a guaranteed income used robots as street stunts to warn what the jobless society of the future would entail Some people gave out 10-franc notes at the Zurich’s main train station while supporters in Geneva set up, on a public esplanade, a giant banner that asked, “What would you if your income were taken care of?” “I understand that a new generation is worried about how and where young people will next find work, but this proposal was pure nonsense,” said Curdin Pirovino, a Swiss industrial designer “You cannot give a society the idea that money is available for doing nothing.” But at a Sunday market in Geneva, several people defended the proposal in the context of returning to a more equitable society Some also presented their vote as another challenge to industrialization, similar to their motivation for buying organic food from the stalls of local farmers rather than cheaper supermarkets A third of voters in Geneva backed the idea of a guaranteed income “We’re losing all our values, creating countries that no longer need workers but still need consumers, but how can we expect people to buy anything if they can’t earn a salary tomorrow?” asked Olivier Duchene, a musician and street entertainer Despite the clear defeat, campaigners said the vote was a first step toward a fairer economic model “One out of five people voted for A proposal to pay the equivalent of $2,560 a month, job or no job the unconditional basic income, so that is a success in itself,” Sergio Rossi, an economics professor who backed the initiative, told STA, the Swiss news agency Switzerland’s model of direct democracy, in which citizens can collect signatures to force a national referendum on a proposal, has helped turn the country into a laboratory for pioneering social and economic changes In early 2013, the Swiss voted to impose some of the world’s most severe restrictions on executive compensation, following a proposal by a small entrepreneur in defiance of the country’s big business lobby Later that year, however, the Swiss rejected another economic proposal, the “1:12” initiative, which would have limited the salary of top executives to 12 times the wages of their lowest-paid employees And in 2014, the Swiss rejected a proposal to introduce what would have been the world’s highest minimum wage, equivalent to nearly $25 an hour Referendums are gaining ground in other European countries that normally rely on a system of parliamentary democracy Last year, Greece held a referendum on a bailout plan, and the Netherlands introduced a referendum law under which voters rejected a European Union agreement with Ukraine in April Britain is set to vote in a referendum this month on whether to leave the European Union a year after Scotland voted to stay in the United Kingdom But in Switzerland, the proliferation of such votes has provoked a debate over the ease with which complicated or radical issues can be brought to a referendum Low voter turnout has also become an issue About 46 percent of eligible Swiss voters went to the polls on Sunday, when four other national issues and several regional issues were voted on Philippe Leuba, a regional politician, said on Swiss national radio on Sunday that it was positive that voters had followed the advice of their federal government But he still deplored the fact that the proposal for guaranteed income had gotten so far, calling it a “hyperpopulist and demagogic” plan to give away money for nothing Economist Holds Thin Lead in Peru’s Presidential Vote By ANDREA ZARATE and NICHOLAS CASEY LIMA, Peru — An economist who served as Peru’s prime minister held a razor-thin lead in the presidential contest on Sunday against the daughter of an imprisoned former president who was seeking to return her family to power A partial count released by the government on Sunday night put Pedro Pablo Kuczynski, 77, with about a percent advantage over Keiko Fujimori, 41, whose father, Alberto, ran the country in the 1990s Officials said the result amounted to a technical tie and said they would keep counting throughout the night While both candidates campaigned on similar free-market platforms, many in the region saw the election as a referendum on the legacy of Mr Fujimori, whose rule turned authoritarian as he suspended the country’s Constitution in a conflict with the Shining Path, a Marxist rebel group Years later, while trying to return to power, he was convicted of corruption and human rights abuses and sentenced to 25 years in prison Still, many Peruvians initially seemed to favor Ms Fujimori — who pledged not to give her father Andrea Zarate reported from Lima, and Nicholas Casey from New York ESTEBAN FELIX/ASSOCIATED PRESS Peruvian citizens in Santiago, Chile, voted on Sunday in an election between Pedro Pablo Kuczynski and Keiko Fujimori a pardon — giving her the most votes in the first round of the presidential contest in April and handing her Popular Force party a majority in Congress After the first round of voting, polls showed her widening a lead over Mr Kuczynski with populist appeals to working-class voters and a law-and-order message Yet the Sunday result revealed a country more evenly divided between the two candidates, with a slight advantage for Mr Kuczynski, a mild-mannered former World Bank official who appealed to voters as a technocrat On Sunday night before supporters, a jubilant Mr Kuczynski, who was prime minister from 2005 to 2006, stopped short of claiming a win, but said he believed that victory would be his soon “I am sure that the election commission will come out tomorrow with a favorable verdict for us,” he said “We abhor dictatorship and love democracy.” Ms Fujimori said she would also wait for the final result “We’re proud to know that we came out with the backing of 50 percent of the population,” she said Cires Palomares Vicuña, 55, a nurse, said she had voted for Mr Kuczynski “I identify with him, and we need to make a positive change and have someone experienced to correctly steer us,” she said Jesús Ayala, 53, a construction worker, said he was fearful that crime was on the rise in his country, something he thought Ms Fujimori was better equipped to handle “I believed in Fujimori’s fight against terrorism back in the ’90s,” he said “He was the only one able to end that war Like now, delinquency has grown, and I think she’s best to combat it.” While her father’s legacy cut both ways, Ms Fujimori found herself on the defense against a number of corruption allegations Critics repeatedly accused her campaign of giving money to voters, and one of her running mates was disqualified by the country’s electoral commission for handing out food and water at an election event Ms Fujimori has denied any wrongdoing The allegations were a factor for Alexander de Feudis, 45, a graphic designer “At first, I thought Keiko would be great because her party leads the Congress and this allows her to make changes faster,” he said “Now I changed my mind because I see too many signs of corruption within her party and the people who surround her.” Militants Suspected in Killing of Bangladeshi Officer’s Wife By JULFIKAR ALI MANIK and NIDA NAJAR DHAKA, Bangladesh — Three attackers fatally shot and stabbed the wife of a police superintendent in southern Bangladesh on Sunday morning, the police said, the latest in a series of killings in which Islamist militants are the primary suspects The woman, Mahmuda Khanam Mitu, 30, and her young son were walking through a narrow lane near their home in Chittagong on the way to a school bus stop when three men arriving on a motorcycle stabbed her and shot her in the head, said Mohiuddin Julfikar Ali Manik reported from Dhaka, and Nida Najar from New Delhi Mahmood, the officer in charge of the Panchlaish police station in Chittagong The son was unhurt “We found nine wounds of stabbing on her back and belly,” Mr Mahmood said Her husband, Babul Akter, a police officer with a record of going after Islamist militants, was recently promoted to superintendent In December, Superintendent Akter led a raid on an apartment on the outskirts of the city that the police said belonged to the banned group Jamaat-ul-Mujahedeen Bangladesh, according to the local news media In October, five people suspected of belonging to the militant group were arrested in Chittagong “We suspect militants,” Iqbal Bahar, the commissioner of the Chittagong Metropolitan Police, said of the attack Superintendent Akter’s work “created threats for him.” Superintendent Akter had been in Dhaka, the capital, for the past few days after his promotion, the police said Though Commissioner Bahar said it was not yet clear who had carried out the attack, he said Jamaat-ul-Mujahedeen Bangladesh could have been involved For the past two years, activists, religious minorities, intellectuals and secularist writers, among others, have been targeted for death in Bangladesh, and the deaths appear to have accelerated in recent weeks The Islamic State has claimed some of the killings on social media accounts linked to it, and others have been claimed by a faction of Al Qaeda The authorities in Bangladesh have denied the presence of foreign militants in the country Also on Sunday, a Christian man, Sunil Gomez, 60, was hacked to death in his grocery store in the Natore district in northern Bangladesh, in a style similar to recent attacks, said Moniruzzaman, subinspector of the Boraigram police station in Natore, who goes by one name The Amaq News Agency of the Islamic State claimed the killing, according to the SITE Intelligence Group But Mr Moniruzzaman said it was too soon to name suspects THE NEW

compelling reasons the leaders of the world’s largest democracies would find common cause The United States is encouraging the rise of India as a giant Asian partner to balance China, and India is trying to accelerate its economy with an injection of investment from American companies “It is true that Obama and I have a special friendship, a special wavelength,” Mr Modi said last month in an interview with The Wall Street Journal Benjamin J Rhodes, the president’s deputy national security adviser for strategic communication, said on Saturday that the two leaders “have each invested in developing a close relationship.” It is worth recounting just how unlikely such a friendship is The nation’s first black president, Mr Obama has made the protection of minorities a central pillar of his life And he has argued that criticism and dissent are core tenets of democracy Mr Modi, by contrast, spent much of his life rising through the ranks of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, a rightwing paramilitary organization that campaigns forcefully for India’s Hindu majority Mr Modi was in charge of the state of Gujarat when rioting in 2002 cost the lives of more than 1,000 people, most of them Muslims Just last week, 24 people were convicted of massacring Muslims during the riots, and pending cases are attempting to prove that Mr Modi, who has so far escaped judicial censure, was part of a high-level conspiracy to encourage the killings Generally poorer and less educated than India’s Hindus, Muslims are about 14 percent of JIM BOURG/REUTERS President Obama and Prime Minister Narendra Modi in India in 2015 Mr Modi, visiting Tuesday, spoke of a “special wavelength.” the population, about the same proportion as African Americans in the United States In India, Mr Modi’s reputation among Muslims could broadly be compared to that of a Southern segregationist from the 1950s Perhaps just as troubling, Mr Modi’s government has increasingly used the country’s broad and vague laws restricting free speech to stifle dissent, according to a recent report by Human Rights Watch Other laws have been used to intimidate and even shut down nongovernmental organizations, such as Greenpeace Neither Mr Obama nor Mr Modi is given to displaying affection Both avoid the socializing common in their capitals And while Mr Obama is a doting father and dutiful husband who maintains close bonds with his childhood friends, Mr Modi abandoned his arranged mar- riage decades ago and has no children or any public friendships Some political analysts have expressed deep skepticism that the two leaders have any real fondness for each other Mr Modi is part of a class of Some doubt there’s a real fondness between two leaders “populist, electable, narcissistic right-wing autocrats whose appeal is that they pander to majoritarian anger,” said Kanti Prasad Bajpai, a professor of Asian studies at the National University of Singapore “Obama is the opposite of that, so it is hard to see how close they can be,” Mr Bajpai said Others see similarities that extend beyond political beliefs Both men rose from modest circumstances, had difficult relationships with their fathers and were widely considered transformational figures when elected (Mr Modi’s humble origins, largely corruption-free government and intense focus on winning foreign investment are sharp breaks from his predecessor.) And parts of Mr Modi’s political operation, in particular its effective use of social media, were based on Mr Obama’s model Ashley J Tellis, a senior associate with the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, said both men “are remarkably warm and have a personal graciousness about them that is very evident in personal encounters.” Raymond E Vickery, a former United States assistant secretary of commerce who has met Mr Modi, said both had grown up as outsiders and valued frankness “Modi is a really down-to-earth guy who tries to answer your questions and doesn’t just go to talking points,” Mr Vickery said Mr Obama made the first significant gesture in the relationship when, during Mr Modi’s first official visit to Washington in 2014, the president left his White House staff behind to give a personal 15-minute tour of the Martin Luther King Jr Memorial Mr Modi responded by inviting Mr Obama to be his guest at the annual Republic Day celebrations in New Delhi in January 2015 When Mr Obama arrived, Mr Modi broke with protocol to greet the president at the airport with a hug And at a later appearance, Mr Modi referred to the president as Barack and thanked him for his “deep personal commitment” to their friendship In a toast at a state dinner, Mr Obama called Mr Modi “my partner and friend.” “The hours they’ve spent together,” Mr Rhodes said Saturday, “have allowed them to have a good understanding of their respective worldviews and domestic circumstances, and made it possible to deepen defense ties, advance our civil nuclear cooperation and achieve a breakthrough on climate change.” He added, “It’s also an indication of how important President Obama thinks our relationship is with India, as the world’s largest democracy and an increasingly important partner.” On Tuesday, White House officials said, the two leaders are expected to discuss climate change and clean energy partnerships, security cooperation, and economic growth The officials said the leaders might announce a new defense logistics agreement, further progress on India’s efforts to phase out ozone-depleting hydrofluorocarbons and perhaps a deal for Westinghouse Electric Corporation to build nuclear power plants in India in a long-delayed fulfillment of a pact first struck in 2006 A shared interest in clean power and climate change is central to their personal bond, some analysts said “These two guys get very little political traction at home for being climate champions, but they are anyway, and I think they respect each other for that,” said Andrew Light, a former senior adviser to the United States special envoy on climate change Tavleen Singh, an Indian commentator and admirer of Mr Modi, said the prime minister’s high-profile sanitation campaign and his efforts to improve the status of women would also endear him to Mr Obama Still, she said she doubted the two men were truly affectionate Zia Haq, an assistant editor at the Hindustan Times in India, was also skeptical “I refuse to believe the two men could be very good personal friends deep down, because Modi is all things Obama can’t possibly be,” Mr Haq wrote in an email A10 N THE NEW YORK TIMES INTERNATIONAL MONDAY, JUNE 6, 2016 Denizens of Kabul Bring Carnival of Life To Field of the Dead left Sitting on the edge of a grave, he was intently wrapped up with every move, at once thrilled and anxious as the birds tangled their necks together and delivered blows “Bring it for the next round before it gets cold!” he called to one owner who Elaborate Displays was wiping the blood from his bird’s face Kart-e-Sakhi cemetery comes to life on “If the bird’s body doesn’t hurt, it won’t Thursdays and Fridays, the Afghan learn how to fight.” weekend Specific grave markers have The graves at Kart-e-Sakhi have bebecome the landmarks for new commucome remarkably ornate lately There nities, some transitory, others more perwere always poetry and flower patterns, sistent but now there are massive headstones Children with chapped hands play with etched portraits, and even posters hanging on the railings enclosing the graves On the edge of the cemetery, behind a row of small shops and eateries, is the grave of “The Martyr Commander Mahdi Ghazniwal Bakshi.” A police officer, he was 23 at the time of his death, ambushed by the Taliban in southwestern Afghanistan Two flags fly over his grave, one of the Afghan state and the other a martyrdom banner, and between them is a poster of him wearANDREW QUILTY FOR THE NEW YORK TIMES ing black shades, a military radio in one hand and an marbles by the grave of Zaher Turkman AK-47 rifle in another Two men smoke a joint near the grave of Inside the railing, right behind a headSayed Rohullah Sadat (They turn out to stone bearing an etched portrait, hangs be policemen.)

Their own names rarely appear on their graves, let alone their portraits or any poetry “Here lies the late mother of Muhammad Raza.” “Here rests the daughter of Muhammad Haidar.” Running Out of Space In a small but overpopulated and unplanned city like Kabul, the logistics of dealing with death at such a rapid rate over three decades has brought dilemmas “We are facing a lack of space for graveyards in the city,” said Abdul Rahman Ahmadzai, the director of the department of the Afghan Ministry of Religious Affairs that oversees the roughly 30 cemeteries in Kabul, 12 of them huge ones like Kart-e-Sakhi Since the civil war, which began in the 1980s, unplanned graveyards have popped up all across the city In the 1990s, when factional fighting intensified, people could hardly move out of fear of rockets, so they often buried their loved ones in any plot of land they could find Now, each grave site is a land dispute for the government to solve “Our policy is that anywhere that bodies are buried automatically becomes government property,” Mr Ahmadzai said “If it is people’s property, the government gives them property elsewhere.” Mr Ahmadzai’s department has been working to acquire land in the districts outside the city’s gates and move the cemeteries there And he has rigidly en- forced the space limit for individual graves: 1.5 meters by 2.5 meters, about feet by feet, a dimension he says is called for under Shariah One noon late in the fall, as the pressure cooker at Mr Ahmadzai’s office in central Kabul grew louder with the noise of a simmering beef stew, a worker from the presidential palace came with a demand He wanted a few meters around his father’s grave enclosed for a mausoleum of sorts, and he had written the details on a piece of paper that also noted the approval of the minister of religious affairs, Mr Ahmadzai’s boss Mr Ahmadzai read the request, and then apologized As a matter of policy, he could not sign off that much space for one grave “My father was a university lecturer on Islamic issues for 40 years,” the man argued “For his service, doesn’t he deserve that much space?” After the visitor mentioned a powerful member of Parliament, Mr Ahmadzai seemed to cave in, assigning an inspector to go check the site But later, in private, he said the inspector would make the same recommendation: It cannot be done His inspectors are his eyes and hands across the city, measuring the grave plots and reporting offenders It falls to C2 THE NEW YORK TIMES, MONDAY, JUNE 6, 2016 N PHOTOGRAPHS BY ROBERT ALTMAN FOR THE NEW YORK TIMES Raucous Rossini: Near-Naked Twister And a Threesome Before the bisexual threesome, the kick line of crossdressed nuns, the near-naked game of Twister and the yogurt feast, LoftOpera’s production of Rossini’s riotous “Le Comte Ory” begins with a relative whisper Rossini’s overture MUSIC is the work of a comREVIEW poser with a sly poker face Restrained and short, it ends quietly, with some demure plucks in the strings It’s a sign of this young company’s skill that its orchestra, led on this occasion by Sean Kelly, is as persuasive in the score’s subtle moments as in its slapstick ones That slapstick is hardly stinted: The production, running through Saturday at the packedto-the-gills Muse warehouse in ZACHARY WOOLFE “Le Comte Ory” runs through Saturday at the Muse, 350 Moffat Street, Brooklyn; loftopera.com Bushwick, Brooklyn, makes much hilarity, for one thing, of men scrambling for pink nun habits But the polish and panache of the staging, directed by John de los Santos, keep the farce from ever seeming amateurish It’s a perfect union of New York’s most raucous and delightful opera company with one of the most raucous and delightful works in the repertory, a salacious look at libidos run amok on the home front during the Crusades If the city’s audiences know “Comte Ory,” it’s likely from a Metropolitan Opera production that opened in 2011 with an allstar cast: Juan Diego Flórez, Diana Damrau and Joyce DiDonato The high spirits in that Bartlett Sher staging often seemed forced, but in Bushwick the simplicity and immediacy of the presentation (seen last Saturday) make the jokes and gags land without thudding Le Comte Ory Above, LoftOpera in this Rossini work at the Muse in Bushwick, Brooklyn From far left, Thorsteinn Arbjornsson, Sharin Apostolou and Elizabeth Pojanowski This modern-dress vision of the work could hardly be pared down further: some creaky platforms, more or less; a bench; and, for the sensationally sensual second-act trio, a fourposter bed But for all the efficient bareness of the setting, the show has a brightly colored, everything-but-the-kitchen-sink exuberance Before the overture, aerialists dressed in yet more nun habits twirl high above the audience, a reminder that this space spends much of its time as a circus school But never does it seem as if the company is mugging; the director and performers have created characters, not clowns Thorsteinn Arbjornsson, his tenor slender yet true, is tasked with the brutally high register of the title role — one of opera’s most tireless Casanovas — but grins and winks his way through the opera with easy charm The other sides of the central love triangle are even better Silky, plangent lines flow from the mezzo-soprano Elizabeth Pojanowski, as the lovesick page Isolier And as the countess Adèle, Sharin Apostolou’s clear, penetrating high notes don’t feel out of place with the general mellowness of her smooth soprano The supporting cast is strong, with Jeff Beruan booming as Ory’s put-upon tutor; Steven Eddy robust as the count’s henchman, Raimbaud; and Shirin Eskandani dusky-voiced as Ragonde, Adèle’s attendant The climactic three-way — one of Rossini’s most inspired, shape-shifting ensembles, with lines tumbling over one another like lovers — throws off genuine sparks This is less because everyone’s stripped down to underwear than because the irresistible music is executed with such stylish confidence To Dream and Dream, Perchance to Conclude Quite a ways into “Andy Warhol’s Tropico,” by the dancetheater troupe the Feath3r Theory, Raja Feather Kelly explains that what the audience has been watching is a re-enactment of his dreams He points out the difference between dream time and real DANCE time: how a dream REVIEW that might seem to last for hours can be compressed into a few minutes of sleep Depending on the dream, that stretching of time can be blissful or excruciating “Andy Warhol’s Tropico,” which had its premiere at Danspace Project on Thursday, lasts two and a half hours without an intermission That’s too long, by about two and a half hours As the title indicates, the production has something to with Warhol and some relation to “Tropico,” a garish, biblicalthemed 27-minute music video by Lana Del Rey But Mr Kelly’s dream includes much more, a great deal of which seems gratuitous, like the awkward bits of audience participation or the five or six movie-trailer-style ads for other coming dance shows It’s hard to say, though, what is essential to this rambling BRIAN SEIBERT ANDREA MOHIN/THE NEW YORK TIMES Prize Tara Willis, foreground, in this Anna Sperber work having its debut at New York Live Arts as part of the Joyce Unleashed series An Opening Salvo, Then Choreography Kicks In As a prologue to a formal dance piece, a thunderous drum solo is a risky choice It kicks the show off with a bang, but can the choreography match and maintain that excitement? The achievement of Anna Sperber’s “Prize” is that it largely does DANCE The hourlong work, REVIEW which had its debut at New York Live Arts on Friday as part of the Joyce Theater’s Joyce Unleashed series, has two centers of attention One is the exceptional drummer Ryan Sawyer, who sits in a back corner coaxing rolls, shimmers, sand storms and other electrifying sounds from his kit The other is the actual center of the BRIAN SEIBERT space, the focal point for many of Ms Sperber’s kaleidoscopic designs After Mr Sawyer’s opening salvo, Michael Ingle circles the stage in leaps, tilting toward the center Once the work’s five other dancers have joined him, they form a circle, facing inward There’s a cultish quality to how they stare at one another and conjoin by forehead, but also a tenderness in their touching of cheeks and chins and smalls of the back That is, until Lizzie Feidelson breaks the spell with a shove Similarly enlivening jolts of aggression return through the work, crucial counterparts to the unsettling crack of Mr Sawyer’s rimshots Other aspects of drama Jolts of aggression that counter a drummer’s rimshots emerge, particularly in the interactions between Elliott Jenetopulos’s evocative lighting and Sara Walsh’s elegantly spare set design of open wings, hanging strips and a white floor that Mr Jenetopulos can darken or make gleam like ice When the lights dim and the dancers twirl ropes above their heads, the whirling hum in the moon glow is hairraising affair Loosely, it recounts a fable about people from a dark place called Tropico, whose journey to a safer land is represented by many shuffling processions around the space The dozen young and eager cast members, wearing face paint, candy-colored wigs and sometimes monks’ robes, periodically pretend to turn into wolves Delivering Mr Kelly’s script — which samples Charlie Chaplin’s “The Great Dictator,” “The Wiz,” Shakespeare and the meditations on time in T S Eliot’s “Burnt Norton” — they try out theatrical accents, sing or lip sync to torch songs and carols and harmonize out of tune More than once, they applaud themselves They also dance, frequently in slow motion but also in thighslapping routines that raise miragelike hopes of fun Floating in all this are vague ideas about religion and power and fantasies fed by movies, along with all-toosincere exhortations to imagine and create a better world But the show lacks the logic of dreams and the kind of uncanny strangeness that would justify its incoherence Not every dream is worth relating But most of the work’s thrills are kinetic Solos, especially for the terrific Emma Judkins, meet Mr Sawyer’s percussion with an invigorating combination of spinning, space-eating motion and the detail of shimmies and shakes Hitches and hiccups complicate the choreography without sacrificing momentum Elsewhere, the dance plays against the drums with stillness and calm Structurally, the dance is less compelling and original, circling back on itself and ending in the dark with the aural implication that the dancers might keep going forever “Prize” isn’t a knockout, but measuring up to Mr Sawyer’s drumming is enough to make it a winner Andy Warhol’s Tropico Sara Gurevich and Raja Feather Kelly in this piece by Mr Kelly, inspired by Warhol and a Lana Del Rey video, at Danspace Project ANDREA MOHIN/THE NEW YORK TIMES THE NEW YORK TIMES, MONDAY, JUNE 6, 2016 C3 N Arts, Briefly Compiled by Joshua Barone SARA KRULWICH/THE NEW YORK TIMES Drama Desk Awards for ‘Humans’ and ‘Shuffle Along’ “The Humans” and “Shuffle Along” (above) each earned four awards, with “The Humans” winning for outstanding play and “Shuffle Along” for outstanding musical, at the Drama Desk Awards on Sunday night The 61st annual awards also honored “The Humans” for outstanding lighting design and sound design, and gave the play a special award for outstanding ensemble “Shuffle Along” also took home awards for outstanding choreography (Savion Glover), costume design and wig and hair design The awards were for productions that opened during the 2015-16 season Excluded was “Hamilton,” which is up for a record-breaking 17 nominations at the Tony Awards on June 12 but originally opened during the 2014-15 season at the Public Theater, Off Broadway (It won seven Drama Desk Awards last year.) Also among the big winners was the Broadway revival of the 1960s Bock and Harnick musical “She Loves Me,” which won for outstanding revival as well as featured actress (Jane Krakowski), orchestration and set design Other acting-award winners included Frank Langella (“The Father”); Jessica Lange (“Long Day’s Journey Into Night”); Danny Burstein (“Fiddler on the Roof”); and Cynthia Erivo (“The Color Purple”) Mr West was the headliner among nearly two dozen performances scheduled for the festival’s third and final day Governors Ball typically has a “rain or shine” policy It has persisted in the past despite rain — most recently, on Saturday LULA CARVALHO/PARAMOUNT PICTURES ‘Ninja Turtles’ Sequel Struggles at Box Office A meaty set of ninja turtles turned in thin results at the weekend box office, increasing the pressure on a struggling Paramount Pictures to find new hits Costing about $135 million to make and at least another $100 million to market worldwide, “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows” (above) took in an estimated $35.3 million at North American theaters, according to comScore, which compiles box office data The film’s franchise predecessor collected $65.6 million over its first three days in August 2014 Paramount contended that “Out of the Shadows” delivered initial international results ($34 million) on par with ticket sales for the 2014 installment, after adjusting for school holidays and exchange rates For the weekend, “X-Men: Apocalypse” (20th Century Fox) took in about $22.3 million in second place, for a two-week domestic total of $116.5 million The romantic drama “Me Before You” (Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer and New Line) did a bit better than expected, taking in about $18.3 million The weekend’s only other new wide release, “Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping” (Universal), a $21 million comedy starring Andy Samberg and produced by Judd Apatow, was dead on arrival, taking in about $4.6 million Sarah Lawrence Dance Announces New Director The Sarah Lawrence College Dance Program announced a new director this week: John Jasperse, the choreographer and dancer Mr Jasperse, who graduated from Sarah Lawrence in 1985 and went on to form his own dance company, will succeed Sara Rudner, who has led the program since 1998 and plans to continue teaching, the college said He will begin in the fall His work has received two Bessie Awards, as well as a 2014 Doris Duke Artist Award He will present the premiere of his latest work, “Remains,” at the American Dance Festival in Durham, N.C., this July; it will be performed at the Brooklyn Academy of Music as part of its Next Wave Festival in September DOUG HYUN/TNT Angie Harmon as Detective Jane Rizzoli in “Rizzoli & Isles,” now entering in its seventh and final season on TNT Buddy Cops in Heels, Nearing Retirement On television, as in life, comfort food comes in all sorts of flavors There’s the tart apple pie of “NCIS,” the solid corned beef and cabbage of “Blue Bloods,” the wacky loco moco of “Hawaii Five-0.” “Rizzoli & Isles,” which begins its seventh and final CRITIC’S season on Monday NOTEBOOK night, is in the TNT section of the menu Like those other shows, which are on CBS, it’s good reheated But it’s lighter and easier to eat with one hand while doing other things It’s the thin-crust pizza of prime time That makes it the type of show that doesn’t generally garner much attention when it announces that its run is ending (The final 13-week season will bring the show to a more-thanrespectable 105 episodes.) A lot of people will notice, though, when “Rizzoli & Isles,” a formulaic buddy-cop drama — with the twist that the buddies are women and one’s a medical examiner — goes away During its most recent run of episodes this spring, the show never finished lower than fifth among scripted cable series in the Nielsen ratings, and stayed comfortably above four million MIKE HALE viewers a week Last summer, when it wasn’t up against the cable-ratings monsters “The Walking Dead,” “Fear the Walking Dead” and “Game of Thrones” — there really are just those three — it often finished first in the cable rankings, with an average audience north of six million Of course, when you narrow your focus to viewers under the age of 50, it’s a different picture “Rizzoli & Isles” — and other popular TNT stablemates like “Major Crimes” and “The Last Ship” — drop 10 or more places in the cable rankings when you go from all viewers to viewers ages 18 to 49 Many of the people who mourn its passing will be within a few decades of saying goodbye themselves Which brings us back to comfort food In the television landscape, is “Rizzoli & Isles” disposable, just a non-brain-taxing easy pleasure for those too old or distracted to get with the peakTV program? Well, no, of course not When six million people find their way to a cable drama, there’s a reason (It’s different on the broadcast networks, where 6.6 million found their way to “The Price Is Right” last week.) Governors Ball Festival Cancels Final Day Performances at the outdoor music festival Governors Ball, including one by Kanye West, were canceled on Sunday because of severe weather In an email to ticket holders, the festival’s organizers said that “the safety of fans, artists and crew always comes first,” and that all performances for Sunday would be canceled because of “a high likelihood of lightning” around the stages at Randalls Island Park in New York KenKen “Rizzoli & Isles” is conventional and predictable, except for its tendency to engage in baroque plot arcs like the one that extends into the current season: The lives of Detective Jane Rizzoli (Angie Harmon) and Dr Maura Isles (Sasha Alexander) are threatened by a jealous police academy washout whose genius for manipulation and ambush combines the best elements of Dickens’s Fagin and Vincent Price’s Dr Phibes But at the same time the show, like “Major Crimes” and their TNT predecessor “The Closer,” is generally credible in the moment, with dialogue that’s sufficiently natural and often has some comic snap The rhythms of the storytelling and the action — first under the creator and head writer, Janet Tamaro, and then under Jan Nash, who succeeded her as showrunner — are unforced but engaging, pulling you along despite the occasional melodramatic excesses —Tom Colicchio BarbecueBible.com

at all — is the combination of Ms Harmon (the pigheaded tomboy Rizzoli) and Ms Alexander (the cerebral sorority girl Isles) It’s not a matter of chemistry, exactly, or of either actress’s range or depth It’s about their ingrained knowledge, as television series veterans, of how to build and maintain appealing characters across seasons And it’s even about the characters they’ve played before — Ms Harmon’s steely Abbie Carmichael on “Law & Order” informs Rizzoli, and Ms Alexander’s spunky Caitlin Todd on “NCIS,” shockingly killed off early in that series, comes to mind whenever Isles is in danger The season premiere, on Monday, picks up where Season ended, with shots fired at a wedding Rizzoli, ever fearless, takes off in pursuit of the shooter She’s wearing a low-cut party dress, and in many other series the camera would pay more attention to Ms Harmon’s décolletage In “Rizzoli & Isles” the focus is on her bare feet, as she yanks off her heels, the better to run through Boston

Along with giving Mr Corea an excuse to convene some of his favorite collaborators, the series underscores the variety and versatility of his musical interests He has won 22 Grammy Awards — most recently last year, for the double album “Tril- How you prepare for something like this? It’s a staggering amount of material, and many different states of mind The states of mind are the easy part, actually When this idea arose for my 60th birthday, I thought, “Wow, how am I going to all of that?” But then I realized that mostly everyone I’m playing with are my dear friends and musical compatriots If I approach it really as a party, and I’m not so serious about having everything be perfect, then I can relax You’ll be working with flamenco musicians like the guitarist Niño Josele Your history with that music suggests a two-way influence Is that something you think about? Very much so, man The recording I made in the ’70s called “My Spanish Heart” was really where that was at Something got turned on when I met Paco de Lucía Then I started meeting other flamencos and got turned on to their music and their history and seeing how that connected to my universe When I get with those guys, it brings out something in me that I take with me even after I leave them it’s definitely not hip-hop What is your instinct when you’re the focus of such a grand event? Do you try to deflect some of the attention, or just bask in it? Basking is definitely the way to go With this list of amazing musicians, it’s time to bask That’s why I don’t feel that stressed by it, because there’s so much trust It’s the pay I get for living, at all; the thrill I get from working with musicians that just give of themselves like that Part of the residency is called “Experiments in Electronica.” What can we expect there? Some of the stuff that I’m messing with has to with loops and sequences — but improvising with them Marcus Gilmore, the drummer, is a partner I like collaborating with, and he’s able to really create in that atmosphere I have a recording project with electronics, which I’m hoping to finish this year It’s a solo project, but Marcus is on some of it I played a track for Swizz Beatz when we did some stuff together at Alicia Keys’s studio I thought, “I’ll take this opportunity to play this electronic stuff for a guy who is one of the kings of production.” He and all his guys were blown away And I was blown away that they were blown away, because The celebration will be in the fall, but your actual birthday is June 12 How will you be spending it? I’m actually going to be out on a ship called the Freewinds, doing an event that we yearly in Scientology called the Maiden Voyage A while back I did two recordings — one called “To the Stars,” and the other called “The Ultimate Adventure” — based on fiction works by L Ron Hubbard, who is my favorite fiction writer So one thing I’m going to onboard is keyboard improvisations to go along with the text of those books That’s where I’ll be on my birthday MATHIAS MARX JEAN ERVASTI Two Takes on the Pursuit of Happily Ever After “I’m single because I was born that way,” Mae West said Not all of us wear that fact with such flair, and instead spend our time in varying states of anxiety wondering how to change it Two new books — one by Moira Weigel, a doctoral candiBOOKS OF THE TIMES date at Yale, and the other by the essayist, novelist and professional aperçu generator Alain de Botton — take strikingly different approaches to analyzing how we seek out and hold on to love Ms Weigel’s “Labor of Love: The Invention of Dating” finds the roots of our modern efforts to pair off in the late 19th century, when courting shifted from a businesslike, family-monitored activity in parlor rooms to a wilder free-for-all in very public spheres As more people relocated to cities, the countless unfamiliar faces streaming by the sales counters at Macy’s or Gimbels functioned much as JOHN WILLIAMS Tinder does today Dating, Ms Weigel writes, “is the form that courtship takes in a society where it takes place in a free market.” She acknowledges “all the works of Marxist and feminist theory” that influenced her thinking on the subject, and a good deal of her book is colored by those theories The scholar in Ms Weigel didn’t set a fine-grain filter on the research for this book She always returns to the “landscape of dating” as her intended theme, but the landscape appears horizonless and the detours can be maddeningly circuitous Just a small sample of subjects that catch her eye include prostitution; historical parenting trends; the American military’s treatment of homosexuals; the aesthetic theories of Kant; and anticolonial revolutions in Latin America These frequent changes in direction require Ms Weigel to make some textbooklike transitions: “The rise of college and the spread of coeducation in the 20th century also shaped the history of dating.” The book is on many statements like that one, true but awfully broad Marbled throughout are sharp summaries of history’s trendy strategies for meeting people, from working at those depart- Seeking that human connection and romance, too ment store counters to the advent of singles bars to the videodating services of the 1980s (hysterical and mortifying examples of that genre are preserved on YouTube) to our current app-driven mating practices Ms Weigel also proves herself a canny film critic, offering a firm takedown of the gender SAVE 20% ON THE ENTIRE CABINETRY COLLECTION JUNE 6-19, 2016 dynamic in Judd Apatow’s “Knocked Up” and a funny parsing of the essential similarities between “American Psycho” and “Pretty Woman.” But “Labor of Love” skims over an enormous number of topics, many of which could prop up entire books of their own It’s hard to tell whether Ms Weigel’s aim is far too ambitious or not nearly ambitious enough She surveys her subject from something like 40,000 feet, at which height human desire and idiosyncrasy, the pillars of dating and its hardships, appear vanishingly small She imagines dates in the 1950s fueled by fear of nukes “Teens, who could now afford movie tickets, Cokes, and hamburgers, did not want to die alone on doomsday.” And today, in a time of global warming and wealth disparity, “when so much feels precarious, serial monogamists cling to their partners for comfort.” But when are things not precarious, especially when it comes to securing human attachment? Surely population trends and other seismic social changes have influenced dating, but what really separates the “callers” to those 19th-century parlors from the millions now editing their OkCupid profiles? What, in other words, are people doing all of this for? Only remarkably late in the book does Ms Weigel make this statement about the very fuel of her subject: “All humans long for others with whom to share our lives.” Where Ms Weigel hovers far above the emotional texture of that longing, Mr de Botton omnisciently narrates from right inside of it in his new novel, “The Course of Love,” which follows a couple, Kirsten and Rabih, from dates to marriage to children to infidelity “The Course of Love” is a return to the form that made Mr de Botton’s name in the mid-1990s, when he was in his The Course of Love Labor of Love The Invention of Dating By Alain de Botton By Moira Weigel 225 pages Simon & Schuster $26 mid-20s and published three novels, starting with “On Love,” that elegantly fussed over and annotated the neuroses of romance In a series of nonfiction books since then, he has acted as a kind of cosmopolitan Yoda, dispensing gnomic wisdom about Proust, travel, architecture, work and religion But love is the subject best suited to his obsessive aphorizing, and in this novel he again shows off his ability to pin our hopes, methods and insecurities to the page (“His clumsiness is at least an incidental sign of his sincerity: we tend not to get very anxious when seducing people we don’t much care about.” “It is a privilege to be the recipient of a sulk; it means the other person respects and trusts us enough to think we should understand their unspoken hurt.”) Kirsten and Rabih feel real enough, but they’re primarily inventions that allow for Mr de Botton’s discourse on what it means to stay together over time He pithily covers our 292 pages Farrar, Straus and Giroux $26 continual need to re-establish that we’re wanted, the dangers of sharing the contents of our sexual imagination and dozens of other subcategories “The Course of Love” explicitly argues that romance can only survive, once it has moved from boil to simmer (or less), if buttressed by resignation and stoicism It imagines marriage vows in an ideal world: “We accept that there cannot be better options out there Everyone is always impossible We are a demented species.” Ms Weigel’s book operates from the totalizing assumption that larger social forces shape our personal intimacies; Mr de Botton believes there’s enough war going on inside any individual love-seeker to match a thousand dysfunctional societies There’s room for both theories, but Mr de Botton’s book is the more satisfying in conveying its particular truth Ms Weigel espouses a utopian impulse that would make falling in love easier and more equitable Mr de Botton says fat chance Bookcases, TV Units, Sideboards, Dining and Occasional Tables BROADWAY “DAZZLING, SASSY AND UPLIFTING!” Time Out London Tomorrow at KINKY BOOTS WINNER!

That he can conduct a probing “Don Carlo” is not enough, especially when the Met, like performing arts institutions everywhere, is under pressure to define a mission for the future that will both maintain SOEREN STACHE/EUROPEAN PRESSPHOTO AGENCY Yannick Nézet-Séguin is committing to five productions during his first Met season Challenging issues and big questions for the Met Opera’s new conductor loyal opera lovers and attract new audiences For all his successes with the Philadelphia Orchestra, Mr Nézet-Séguin has not charted a clear course for that essential ensemble In a recent interview with The New York Times, he conceded that Philadelphia had become dismayingly conservative in its programming and identity There was “not a cultivation enough of what’s new” before he arrived, he said in the interview But when asked what he would about it, what new or underappreciated composers he might champion, he could not come up with a single name Compare this with Mr Levine, who was afire with vision for the Met as soon as he achieved a leadership role in the 1970s He founded the Young Artist Development program; started giving Carnegie Hall concerts and touring with the Met Orchestra; played piano quartets and other works with the Met Chamber Ensemble (another of his initiatives); made the operas of Debussy, Berg and Stravinsky central to the Met’s repertory; brought overlooked Mozart works to the stage; and pushed the company to present Schoenberg’s daunting 12-tone “Moses und Aron.” His one major shortcoming concerned commissioning composers He did not press hard enough to turn the Met into a house that fostered new opera In many ways, the charismatic Mr Nézet-Séguin is an exciting choice for the Met But challenging issues and big questions will face him when he arrives Many people will be looking for indications of his mission in the coming years It would be an encouraging statement of purpose if one of those five operas he conducts in the 2020-21 season was a world premiere MANUEL HARLAN Actors and members of the team that created “Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.” From left, Colin Callender, a producer; Noma Dumezweni (Hermione); Jack Thorne, the playwright; Jamie Parker (Harry); Sonia Friedman, a producer; and John Tiffany, the director Previews for the play begin on Tuesday in London How Producers Brought ‘Harry Potter’ to the Stage From First Arts Page COLIN CALLENDER We went up to Edinburgh four years ago and sat in a boardroom and talked about fathers and parenting for a while We said we felt she had created a fully dimensional world, and there were things about the characters she hadn’t revealed We didn’t hear anything for a bit, then got the call to say, “Let’s go to the next stage.” She was clear from the beginning that she was not a playwright and wouldn’t write it, and that she would only it if we found a playwright she approved Did you know Jack Thorne’s writing already? FRIEDMAN We actually thought first about who might direct I’ve been wanting to work with John for 20 years, and he has turned down all my suggestions I loved his work in “Black Watch” and “Let the Right One In,” the kinds of effects he achieved from nothing So we approached him, and he said we have to it with Jack Jack and John, you knew each other from Cambridge University? JACK THORNE John came to give a reading when I was a student there, and I approached him afterward and he was terribly nice, and kind enough to read my terrible plays Then he ran off to run the National Theater of Scotland JAMIE PARKER You have abandonment issues, obviously You both share story credit with J K Rowling How did it work having three writers in the mix? JOHN TIFFANY Jo Rowling was incredibly generous I met her first, and I already had a soft spot for her because she used to write in the cafe of the Traverse Theater in Edinburgh when I was the director It was only after the first book came out that I realized it had been her, nursing one cappuccino for four hours When we met to talk about the play, she asked, “What you think the Harry Potter stories are about?” I said, “Learning to deal with death and grief.” There was something in her eye — I thought, we didn’t say it’s about transformation or magic or flying on brooms, and we’re on the right track THORNE We all met in Edinburgh and as the day developed, we knew we would take the epilogue of “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows” as a starting point TIFFANY All the seeds are there; we start with that scene in the train station Am I allowed to say that? Anyway, it was clear that she was going to let us take those characters and have our own ideas CALLENDER Of course, Jack came to the table with an encyclopedic knowledge of Harry, so that helped THORNE All right, I’m a nerd With abandonment issues Did you really sketch out the whole arc of the story in that first meeting? THORNE Yes, but then it took about six months to really map the whole thing out Every time it was like taking a big step forward, one or two small ones back Jo would say, “This feels right, this doesn’t.” same age as Harry in the play and I just had my first child, so there has been a lot of discussion about growing up, being a parent TIFFANY There are parts of the story, which when we first conceived them, I didn’t think she would let us do, but she never hesitated It is one thing to let us continue the story, another to let us unravel the canon TIFFANY How you mother or father when you still need parenting yourself? FRIEDMAN That’s enough! Was the idea of a two-part play there from the beginning? TIFFANY No, not at all But we knew we had to deal with going beyond where the books left off, but also go back and look at the stories within them We wanted to develop the characters that are already known and keep that consistency, but also introduce new ones It was clearly hard to put an epic tale into two-and-ahalf hours We had a meeting and said, “Why not two parts?” And we knew right away how we wanted to end the first part It’s a cliffhanger NOMA DUMEZWENI It does that wonderful thing that books when they work; it makes you desperate for more story How is it different telling that story as a play rather than a novel? THORNE We can tell the story of the younger and older generation at the same time, which the books didn’t The exciting thing has been working out how those worlds fit together It’s a coming-of-age story as much for the adults as for the children John and I are more or less the DUMEZWENI Also, I think the difference with a play is that you’re not experiencing the story on your own the way you with a book Being in the theater is a communal experience, and this play, with two parts, is a commitment I’m fascinated to see what my daughter will think after a whole day in the theater As an actor, it’s something I’ve never experienced before What about dealing with the issue of magic in the theater, where you can’t create the kind of effects that happen in film? TIFFANY Film has got green screen We’ve got the imagination of the audience How you feel, Jamie and Noma, playing characters that a huge fan-base feel so possessive about? Is it intimidating? DUMEZWENI I think Jamie found it very intimidating [Everyone laughs.] PARKER It’s not so different from playing any role that is within a canon You have the responsibility of being sensitive to the collective investment in the story But you just have to try to serve the play the best way you can and not worry about that DUMEZWENI The weight of expectation is huge But for me that pressure has been outweighed by getting text messages from mums I know saying how huge it is for their mixedrace daughters that I am playing Hermione Ultimately it’s a theater piece, I’m a theater actor and doing a job as best I can Has it been difficult to work under conditions of intense secrecy? And what about when previews start and people are talking about the play online? CALLENDER I’m hopeful after seeing how people were about “Star Wars.” They mostly protected the fans TIFFANY It will be a relief when the text is published, when the play officially opens on July 30, so that it’s not our secret to keep But if you don’t read it, and you choose not to read reviews, we’ve made it possible to come without prior knowledge PARKER And you don’t get that much nowadays So often things are ruined because you know so much DUMEZWENI I’ve quite loved the secrecy Although, of course, my home life is [expletive] My daughter tries to guess what is in the play She says, “Just smile at me if I’m right.” TIFFANY My mum is the only problem Everyone else is fine She asks really specific questions; then I discovered people are quizzing her in her local supermarket PARKER When people ask, I just pull out a wand, and go, “I’m a wizard!” Fake Reality, With Bachelorettes and a Twist on the Suitor From First Arts Page lasting” lingo, they’re not “wifeys.” Darius’s casting complicates the racial dynamic, at least to the extent that the producers are now open to the possibility of a black wifey, or “blifey.” In the “Everlasting” kingdom, that amounts to progress What doesn’t change is the way the producers reduce a new crop of young women to elevator pitches: the “angry black woman” (a college activist); the “terrorist” (a woman of Pakistani heritage whom the producers pressure to wear a head scarf on camera, though she doesn’t in real life); the “hot racist” (cast because she went viral on Instagram wearing a Confederate-flag bikini) It’s all terrible, of course Rachel knows it She also knows that she’s terrific at it And Ms Appleby is terrific at playing her as a gunslinger of manipulation, all the better at finding subjects’ psychic weak spots because of her own history of mental illness and breakdowns She’s a toughened scar and a raw wound Power, on “UnREAL,” involves a kind of unprotected intimacy; you have to risk infection During the first season, Rachel had an illicit romance with the season’s suitor, a media-savvy British BETTINA STRAUSS/LIFETIME Josh Kelly and Genevieve Buechner in “UnREAL,” a fictional look at a dating show royal with a P.R problem; for each of them, the relationship was genuine and a means of control Just as on “Everlasting,” any relationship on “UnREAL” can be sincere and calculated at the same time “UnREAL” achieves the ambition of a premium-cable drama using the tools of basic cable The direction isn’t cinematic, but it’s complex, especially the scenes involving the chaos of shooting Simultaneous dramas unfold in front of the reality-TV cameras and behind them: romances, betrayals, competition among both the cast and the producers Minus a few obscenities, the show’s dialogue has the militarygrade precision of “Veep,” another show about coal-hearted workaholics When the young producer Madison (Genevieve Buechner) has trouble getting a contestant to open up on camera, Rachel is unmoved: “Tell her your mother died or something,” she says “My mom did die,” Madison answers “There you go!” Rachel says “Use that!” The first season had a weakness for over-the-top twists and it drew some supporting characters broadly; Chet still seems to be on a different, more satirical show (He’s become a men’srights fanatic after going on a “Paleolithic lifestyle retreat.”) But “UnREAL” generally avoids straw men and straw bachelorettes What might have been a self-satisfied smackdown of reality TV and its audience has become a challenging and delectably entertaining drama about power and deception, idealism and cynicism Is making history by casting Darius worth repeating history by setting up another cast of women to be edited into wifeys and tramps? That’s what Rachel tells herself But we know by now how great she is at spinning fairy tales C6 THE NEW YORK TIMES, MONDAY, JUNE 6, 2016 N EVENING 7:00 7:30 8:00 8:30 9:00 9:30 10:00 10:30 Mom “Mozzarella Broke Girls Scorpion “Arrivals and Departures.” Scorpion “Dam Breakthrough.” Sticks and a Gay “And the Gym A deadly fungus outbreak (14) A crack in a dam puts a town in Piano Bar.” (14) and Juice.” (14) danger (14) 2016 Stanley Cup Final Pittsburgh Penguins vs San Jose Sharks Game 11:00 11:30 12:00 News (N) The Late Show With Stephen Colbert (PG) (11:35) News Scarborough, Vargas, Huff & Beck (N) The Big Bang Theory (PG) The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon Daniel Radcliffe; Mel B; Maren Morris (N) (14) (11:34) The Simpsons TMZ Live (PG) “Let’s Go Fly a Coot.” (PG) Jimmy Kimmel Live (14) (11:35) WCBS The Insider (N) Entertainment Tonight (N) WNBC Extra (N) (PG) Access Hollywood (N) (PG) WNYW WABC Modern Family “Connection Lost.” (PG) Jeopardy!

led the Minneapolis Lakers to five titles By LOUIE LAZAR MINNEAPOLIS — John Kundla sat in a wheelchair playing cribbage opposite his 68-year-old son, calling out numbers in a quiet, deep voice The efficiency apartment here had a twin bed under a painting of Jesus tending sheep; a desk topped with a large magnifying glass and a Bible; and, resting on a shelf, a photograph taken on a basketball court in 1952 showing Kundla atop the shoulders of a jubilant George Mikan, the sport’s most dominant big man in the first half of the 20th century Kundla, 99, was the head coach of the Minneapolis Lakers’ championship teams of the 1940s and 1950s — professional basketball’s first modern dynasty He is the oldest living Hall of Famer in any of the four major American team sports and one of three N.B.A coaches, along with Red Auer- bach and Phil Jackson, to have won three or more consecutive titles Kundla is “a forgotten legend of basketball,” according to the historian John Christgau, author of the book “The Origins of the Jump Shot.” Kundla’s Lakers ruled the league in the years before the shot clock, when players were still shooting free throws underhand Kundla coached in the N.B.A.’s

Ali’s childhood home in Louisville, Ky Right, Ali’s brother, Rahman Ali, at a church service in Louisville Ali Remembered, by Those Who Knew Him as Cassius By KAREN CROUSE LOUISVILLE, Ky — Muhammad Ali filled the middle of three screens in the small theater In footage taken a few years after his 1960 Olympic gold medal performance, he was explaining his decision to sit out the Vietnam War to a group of white male college students “You won’t even stand up for me in America for my religious beliefs,” said Ali, who had converted from Christianity to Islam, “and you want me to go somewhere and fight, but you won’t even stand up for me at home.” From her seat in the darkened room at the Muhammad Ali Center on Saturday, Emma McElvaney Talbott heard Ali’s words and couldn’t hold back “That’s right,” she exclaimed, not caring how far her voice carried The hometown that McElvaney Talbott and Ali shared was staging a citywide love-in this weekend for its native son, who died late Friday after a decades-long struggle with Parkinson’s disease Outside the center, the flags had been lowered to half-staff Inside, McElvaney Talbott’s memories, triggered by the 15-minute film of Ali’s life, were going full tilt All around her were people who had come to pay their respects, some bearing bouquets of flowers or boxing gloves, handmade signs or letters Or, in some cases, just silent blessings Kerry Borvan, who had been traveling with her nephews from Chicago to the Dollywood theme park in Pigeon Forge, Tenn., made an unplanned stop at the museum and cultural center after waking

inappropriate punctuation mark for the cold and clammy tournament that had just ended Unless, that is, you were Novak Djokovic He has been waiting 12 years to slide out of others’ shadows and find the

BASEBALL After Rain Delay, Orioles Pounce on Yanks’ Chapman and Rally to Win By BILLY WITZ BALTIMORE — As the Yankees’ first-base coach, Tony Pena, stood in the dugout Sunday morning, he was asked to consider a hypothetical sitORIOLES uation What YANKEES if his son, Francisco, came to the plate for the Baltimore Orioles with two outs, the bases loaded and the Yankees clinging to a one-run lead? “I want him to strike out,” Pena said with a smile “I want to win Honestly I want to win.” It was not quite the ninth inning and Francisco Pena did not deliver the winning hit, but he was there in the middle of the winning rally for the Orioles, who scored three times in the bottom of the eighth inning after a long rain delay to beat the Yankees, 3-1, at Camden Yards After the rain had delayed the game for hour 37 minutes, Yankees closer Aroldis Chapman came on with runners at first and second and quickly struck out Jonathan Schoop for the second out But Pena rifled a single to right field hit so hard that it prevented the lead runner, Mark Trumbo, from trying to score — even after right fielder Aaron Hicks bobbled the ball But pinch-hitter Matt Wieters followed by lining an 0-2 fastball up the middle to drive in Trumbo and Chris Davis, and Pena then scored when center fielder Jacoby Ellsbury’s throw sailed past catcher Brian McCann Chapman was not backing up home The loss was a crushing way to end a 10-game trip for the Yankees, who wasted a plethora of scoring opportunities and another fine effort by starter C C Sabathia before falling victim to Chapman’s first blown save in 10 chances “We can’t feel sorry for ourselves,” said reliever Dellin Betances, who lost for the second time in this series and has given up runs in four consecutive appearances, a career high “Things aren’t going our way We just have to continue to work.” As dispiriting as the loss was for the Yankees, it was uplifting for the Orioles, who moved into a tie for first place with Boston in the American League East, six and a half games ahead of the Yankees Nobody was more ebullient than the younger Pena, who hit his first career home run on Thursday and played in front of his father for the first time on Sunday They shared laughs and meals and celebrated the older Pena’s 59th birthday on Saturday “It was a real, real special moment,” Pena said of playing in front of his father “It’s the same game — I still had a smile on my face I just had fun, trying just to make my whole family proud back home in the Dominican Republic watching and my wife and my mom.” Tony Pena was standing in the corner of the Yankees’ dugout, his arms folded, when the ball went PHOTOGRAPHS BY PATRICK SEMANSKY/ASSOCIATED PRESS The Orioles’ Chris Davis crossing the plate on a single by Matt Wieters off the Yankees’ Aroldis Chapman, one of three runs in the eighth inning Left, Chapman in the dugout in the ninth screaming off the bat of his son into right field After the loss, the elder Pena was disappointed, but he also surely had some paternal pride Francisco, a catcher like his father, said he caught his father’s eye once during the game After chasing down a ball that had skittered away, he glanced toward the first-base coaching box He also stepped into the batter’s box once and asked McCann, one of many Yankees he knows, if he might him a favor and call for a fastball “When I was in A-ball, AA, used to go to Yankee Stadium on my day off, so I know all those guys,” said Pena, 26, who signed with the Mets as a 17-year-old and made his major league debut last year for Kansas City “I was messing around with McCann.” Sabathia walked six and hit a batter in five solid innings, but he managed to keep the Orioles scoreless amid muggy, 80-degree conditions He lowered his E.R.A to 0.87 over his last five starts, but he has only two wins over that stretch The Yankees took a 1-0 lead on an Alex Rodriguez single that scored Brett Gardner with two outs in the third, but that was the Yankees’ sole run despite 10 hits, two walks and a runner who reached on an error All the base runners made for a busy day for Pena’s father at first base As unshakable as the bond is between father and son, there is also a link between catchers — an often unspoken understanding of the demands of the position So when the Yankees’ two catchers recently sustained freakish injuries — McCann hyperextending his left elbow when he reached down to block a pitch and Austin Romine hurting his thumb when his glove fell off as he tried to catch a warm-up pitch — Manager Joe Girardi cringed along with them Girardi caught for 15 seasons in the major leagues “That’s why I retired,” Girardi said Sunday morning in the thirdbase dugout “I don’t miss all the bumps and bruises you get as a catcher and how you physically feel every day It’s a brutal position, and there has to be a good amount of toughness in an individual to play that position.” When Romine was hurt before the start of the ninth inning on Saturday, Pena jogged out with his glove and mask to warm up Chapman He was quickly called back because Girardi wanted to preserve Chapman’s warm-up tosses for McCann, who was replacing Romine “I was not scared for Tony,” Girardi said Pena, a four-time Gold Glove catcher, was in the vanguard of Latino catchers in the late 1970s and early 1980s who brought a flamboyance to the position, sitting on the ground with one leg splayed out and throwing from a crouch Pena was eager to show off his arm, one of the best in the game “With Tony, everybody knew he was in the park,” Orioles Manager Buck Showalter said “This kid fits in a little more,” he said, referring to Francisco Pena, who goes by Frankie The younger Pena is indeed more circumspect He is bigger than his father, at feet inches and 230 pounds, and he displayed a rare sign of exuberance on Sunday when he applauded pitcher Kevin Gausman for a high fastball he threw Ellsbury with the bases loaded in the fourth Gausman eventually struck Ellsbury out Tony Pena, who averaged just over six walks for every 100 plate appearances in his 18-year career, said his son had a similar approach at the plate: “His strike zone is from the head to the toe If he throws the rosin bag, he might swing.” Pena’s remark was a spot-on scouting report when the younger Pena fouled off five two-strike pitches and coaxed an 11-pitch walk in his first at-bat He reached in the fifth on an infield single and took a called third strike in the sixth, at the end of an eight-pitch at-bat against Kirby Yates The best, though, was yet to come Marlins Win in Tight Pitching Duel, But Mets’ Harvey Again Looks Solid By ANDY KENT MIAMI — It was a classic pitchers’ duel from start to finish on Sunday afternoon, and while Matt Harvey came out on the wrong end of a 1-0 MARLINS score against the Miami METS Marlins’ Jose Fernandez, he still had a good deal to feel positive about Harvey matched the fiery Fernandez for seven solid innings in what was his second straight strong start in a season that, until now, had been full of struggles He allowed just one earned run and four hits, with three strikeouts and no walks, almost duplicating the seven shutout innings he threw against the Chicago White Sox last Monday, on Memorial Day “It’s still two starts; and obviously, the massive struggles that happened before, the only thing you want to think of is not letting that kind of creep back in,” said Harvey, who is an unbecoming 4-8 on the season but no doubt in a better frame of mind than he was a week ago Or, as he put it to reporters after the game, “Feeling pretty good is C A L E N DA R TV Highlights Baseball 7:00 p.m 7:00 p.m 7:00 p.m Baseball / College 4:00 p.m N.C.A.A Regional 7:00 p.m Hockey / N.H.L

allowing just four hits on 100 pitches, 73 of which were strikes Harvey was almost as precise, with 70 strikes across 104 pitches Fernandez improved to 9-2 this season and is on a roll Harvey has definitely not been, but he still has much of the season to truly turn things around Fernandez and Harvey made for an intriguing matchup They share the same agent in the formidable Scott Boras and have had a similar career arc — righthanders who displayed dominance early on, only to succumb to injury and have to work their way back after Tommy John surgery Harvey’s only real mistake Sunday came in the bottom of the fifth, when he left a pitch up in the strike zone that Miami’s Derek Dietrich smacked for a double off the fence in center field Marlins catcher J T Realmuto then drove in Dietrich with a single up the middle on a 2-0 pitch, giving Fernandez all the support he needed “You don’t want to give up a run in a tight ballgame like that,” Harvey said “But I left a pitch over the plate and he got on second and then I made a pretty good pitch to Realmuto and he hit it up the middle In that situation I wanted a ground ball, I got it, it just wasn’t at somebody.” Mets Manager Terry Collins was enthused by Harvey’s performance, and why not? “I think he threw the ball great, and I thought he really pitched today,” Collins said “He moved the ball around, you saw him pitch inside and he made very, very few mistakes The ball up to Dietrich’s MIKE EHRMANN/GETTY IMAGES Mets starter Matt Harvey showed continued signs of a turnaround in seven solid innings Sunday probably the only mistake he made, so I thought he threw the ball great.” Collins added: “I think it’s going to ease Matt’s mind most of all, and that’s the one that counts He felt good about what he did today, how he got through it.” Rivera, who has been behind the plate for each of Harvey’s last two starts, seemed similarly pleased “If you ask the other side how Harvey threw they’d tell you the same thing — that he was good, he was nasty and that’s how the 1-0 games go,” he said When Fernandez made his debut as a rookie in 2013 and took the National League by storm, Harvey was having a Cy Young Award-worthy season himself before tearing an elbow ligament that August He missed all of 2014 and then more or less returned to form in 2015, going 13-8 with a 2.71 E.R.A and 188 strikeouts in helping the Mets reach the postseason But that was also when Boras pointedly expressed concern about how many innings Harvey was pitching in his first season back from surgery In the end, Harvey did keep pitching, throwing 26 innings in the postseason, including eightplus innings in the final game of the World Series, against the Kansas City Royals How much that heavy workload has been responsible for his rocky start this season is up for debate, but in any case he now appears to be finding his form Even though he is pitching much better now, there were times, Harvey said after Sunday’s game, “where I kind of leak to the plate and my arm doesn’t get out.” “But over all,” he added, “when you can go seven and limit damage and give your team a chance to win it’s pretty satisfying.” The Mets agree, even if they lost INSIDE PITCH Mets outfielder JUAN LAGARES sustained a sprained left thumb in his team’s 6-4 victory Saturday while making a diving catch in center field

along with rebounds and assists Warriors Resume Business as Usual, So the Cavaliers Lose by 33 By SCOTT CACCIOLA OAKLAND, Calif — Steve Kerr, the coach of the Golden State Warriors, is fairly open about the fact that he plays favorites WARRIORS 110 When it CAVALIERS 77 comes to Golden State shooting the leads series, 2-0 basketball, Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson are allowed to whatever they want They can chuck shots from the bleachers Bad shots not exist for them “That’s the rule,” Kerr said, adding, “I trust their judgment.” Draymond Green has not earned the right to be included in their elite little group — not yet, anyway But he was at his dynamic best in the Warriors’ 110-77 victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Sunday night in Game of the N.B.A finals He buried 3pointers He defended He rebounded And he helped carry the Warriors to a two-games-to-none series lead at Oracle Arena “The way they’re guarding us, Draymond’s open a lot,” Kerr said “He becomes our safety valve when there’s pressure He becomes an open shooter when they’re stepping out on Steph or Klay So it’s a good situation for him.” The Cavaliers are in a world of trouble ahead of Game 3, which is scheduled for Wednesday night at Quicken Loans Arena The Warriors can sniff a second straight championship, can sense the final act in their history-making season After setting an N.B.A record by winning 73 regular-season games, the Warriors need two more wins for another title Green finished with 28 points, rebounds and assists He shot 11 of 20 from the field and of from 3-point range Curry scored 18 points, and Thompson added 17 “Our focus has been there,” Green said “We’ve really locked in on the game play The intensity level has been there.” LeBron James did what he could for the Cavaliers, finishing with 19 points, assists and rebounds But he did not benefit from much help Kyrie Irving had 10 points, and Kevin Love scored points in 20 minutes before he left for the locker room early in the second half with dizziness He was placed in the league’s concussion protocol “It’s hard for me to kind of pinpoint what’s not working and what could work right now,” James said after the game “Obviously, not much work is working, especially offensively.” Cavaliers Coach Tyronn Lue was more direct “They were tougher than us and more aggressive,” he said While the Warriors are celebrated for their long-distance shooting, they also broke out their lunch pails and hard hats When Love caught an inadvertent elbow to the back of the head midway through the second quarter, Green went straight at the rim for a layup He punctuated the play by flexing his biceps as Love writhed in pain nearby The victory was not without its challenges for Golden State Curry picked up his fourth foul early in the third quarter and took a seat on the bench But when the Cavaliers threatened, Green answered with a 3-pointer, his fourth of the game Curry returned at the start of the final quarter and promptly swished a from another ZIP code The lead was 23 It was back to business as usual for Curry and Thompson, who both struggled Thursday in Game 1, when they combined to score just 20 points on 8-of-27 shooting Propped up by their bench, the Warriors won by 15 — a result that portended danger for the Cavaliers If they could not capitalize when Curry and Thompson were not at their best, what did they expect to once those two players started making shots? And rest assured, they would start making shots Their problems would not persist forever Still, Lue had come away from Game encouraged He liked the Cavaliers’ defense (especially on Curry and Thompson), their re- bounding and their ability to earn trips to the free-throw line If only his players had not blown so many opportunities at the rim, Lue said “We missed nine point-blank layups when no one was around,” said Lue, who drove home the message by showing them the film clips Ahead of Game 2, he also told his players that he wanted them to operate with more pace, or at least that was what Lue told reporters This has been a common refrain among the Cavaliers, who believe that they are at their best when the push the tempo James said he was on board “I think when you keep the ball on one side for too long and you’re pounding and pounding and pounding, too much of that won’t result in good basketball,” he said before the game “It won’t result in good rhythm for everyone out on the floor So there is a fine line I’m O.K with us having some isolation basketball if we’re going quick JOHN G MABANGLO/EUROPEAN PRESSPHOTO AGENCY The Cavaliers’ Kevin Love after he was struck in the head by an elbow in the second quarter But if we’re holding the ball, and we’re just staring down the defense, and we’re staring down the ball, then it can become a problem for us.” Playing fast is a dicey proposition against an opponent as dynamic as Golden State, which employs players with advanced degrees in fast-break basketball Yet they seemed to be daydreaming at the start of Game The Warriors missed four of their first six field-goal attempts They also committed a couple of careless turnovers, including a backcourt violation The Warriors left it to Andrew Bogut, their starting center, to ignite them, his third block leading to Curry’s first 3-pointer of the game Bogut might as well wear work boots instead of high-top sneakers But both teams remained stuck in second gear, at least for a while The Cavaliers led by 21-19 at the end of the first quarter James, who seemed determined to act as a pass-first facilitator in the game’s early stages, did not score until minute 21 seconds had elapsed in the second quarter, and he went baseline for a spinning layup that put Cleveland ahead by Kerr had seen enough, calling a 20-second timeout so he could share some words with his players It was effective Green made a Curry buried a pull-up jumper And the Warriors continued to apply pressure, building a 15-point lead late in the half The lead grew, and grew over the course of the second half, each possession feeling more like a celebration for the fans at Oracle Outside the visiting locker room, a mountain of luggage was ready for the Cavaliers and their imminent trip back

and TV for a quarter-century and been the lead voice of the N.B.A on ESPN and ABC TV for a decade SPORTS Breen’s longevity is not a surprise He is an easy, comfortable presence whose play-by-play is smooth and accurate, who pays attention to small details and engages his analysts — Mark Jackson and Jeff Van Gundy at ESPN and ABC, and Walt Frazier at MSG Network — as if they are carrying on a game-long discussion He has no shtick — unless you count “Bang!” for critical 3-pointers as one The N.B.A finals between the Golden State Warriors and the Cleveland Cavaliers is his record 11th finals, two more than Marv Albert (with NBC) and Dick Stockton (CBS) And he will RICHARD SANDOMIR Email: sandor@nytimes.com continue his run with a newly announced contract extension “I know this sounds corny and clichéd, but it’s kind of overwhelming to think about it,” he said by telephone Friday between Games and of the finals “I grew up watching the N.B.A when Marv was the man — and he’s still the man — and I listened to Stockton call all those Lakers-Celtics matchups I’ve been blessed to have all these opportunities come my way.” Breen might have been calling his 15th N.B.A finals if ESPN/ ABC had chosen its lead announcer more wisely when it took over N.B.A broadcast rights from NBC after the 2002 season ESPN picked Brad Nessler, best known for his bland college football and basketball work, but he flopped With David Stern, then the N.B.A commissioner, uncomfortable with ESPN’s production, Nessler was replaced temporarily by Al Michaels Breen was hired in 2006 Longevity has been in the news lately Verne Lundquist decided to stop calling Southeastern Conference football games, which he has done for CBS since 2000, after the coming season But CBS will replace Lundquist, a joyful, big-game voice, with Nessler, who lacks the ability to convey effective excitement, even in big games Chris Berman is reported to be nearing his end at ESPN, although nothing has been confirmed by him or the network A crucial personality at ESPN nearly from its inception, Berman has become a caricature of his better self by failing to adjust his once-playful shtick and boisterous personality to the 21st century Sean McDonough recently received the biggest break of his career, promoted by ESPN to call “Monday Night Football” after Mike Tirico went to NBC, where he is a candidate to succeed Michaels on “Sunday Night Football.” No one expects Michaels to leave soon, but Tirico is only 49 He can wait Breen has had his big break He has his dream job and shares it with Jackson and Van Gundy, friends for 25 years through their Knicks connections “The most underrated part of our business is the continuity and comfort level we have because you know where they’re going,” Breen said “It’s like the game — players who play together a long time just get better.” He occasionally looks back at old games to see how he can improve and relies on friends and colleagues for guidance (By contrast, Albert listens to old tapes of his mentor, Marty Glickman, to remind himself of how best to call a game.) One of Breen’s advisers, the producer Ken Wolfe, once watched one of the five games Breen called in a particular week and told him he sounded uninterested in that one, a blowout “He told me, ‘You didn’t bring the proper energy, and if that’s the only game a fan watched, he’d think this guy wasn’t very good.’” Another friend, Mike McCarthy, a former executive at the network MSG, counseled him to build to a crescendo so that “I’m not screaming, ‘We’re tied at 10!’” During Game of the finals Sunday night, Breen brought an elevated level of excitement to a brilliant stretch of basketball by Golden State in the fourth quarter that began with a long shot by Stephen Curry “Four to shoot,” Breen said with an unusual amount of delight in his familiar voice “Curry, from the 28-foot line — whoa-ho! — Steph Curry from way downtown!” Soon after a missed shot by Cleveland — a sequence that starred Leandro Barbosa — Breen had this high-energy play-by-play: “Curry comes ahead of the pack, to Barbosa — off the glass!” To Jackson, who earlier had discussed how the Warriors “take your will where you begin to doubt you want to fight,” Breen added: “This is one of those deflating stretches you spoke of.” Then Breen shifted with brio to another will-sapping Golden State play: “Barbosa, with the steal — the Brazilian Blur — a 27-point game!’ It was such a dandy sequence of announcing that you didn’t want ABC to go to a break and interrupt Breen or the offensive flow of the Warriors During the series opener Thursday, Breen had a gamelong challenge: how to call a lousy shooting night by Curry, ordinarily a 3-point master Breen shifted his language, offering up different words for similar results An early call — “Curry, the mismatch, Curry the 3!” — gave way to a chronicle of a 4-for-15 performance: “Missed shot by Curry,” “Curry off the glass, can’t fall,” “Curry — not that time,” and “Curry gets inside — left-handed, won’t go.” Breen said in an interview: “Curry has a night like that every once in a while, but that wasn’t the surprise Even Michael Jordan had some rough games The surprise was how well they were playing without him.” D4 THE NEW YORK TIMES, MONDAY, JUNE 6, 2016 N B OX I N G COURIER JOURNAL, VIA ASSOCIATED PRESS Students of Central High School in Louisville, Ky., surrounded Muhammad Ali, then known as Cassius Clay, after he won an Olympic gold medal in 1960 A City Remembers the Man It First Knew as Cassius From First Sports Page stan and is a longtime resident of the Louisville area, had once met Ali, and he produced photographs from his smartphone to prove it He had come to say a Muslim prayer for the former heavyweight champion of the world There were also those who were there from the start, who knew Ali as a kid in Louisville who raced school buses on foot and walked teenage girls home from school for the prospect of a kiss, who could testify to the sentiment that Mayor Greg Fischer of Louisville had expressed at a Saturday morning memorial service when he said, “Muhammad Ali belongs to the world, but he only has one hometown.” That rang true for McElvaney Talbott, a retired educator and a writer, and her husband, Cecil Talbott, an engineer, who are card-holding members of the center, which was co-founded by Ali and his wife, Lonnie On Saturday, the waiving of admission fees was hardly what motivated them to join the steady procession of visitors On a day when the weather — gray and glum with scattered sunshine between downpours — reflected the city’s collective emotions, they said they had come because each room in the center was like a page from a scrapbook Like Ali, Cecil Talbott learned to box at a local gym run by Fred Stone, who is credited with helping to teach Ali the footwork that enabled him to flit around the ring like a dancer With prodding from his wife, Talbott recounted a threeround sparring session he had with the much bigger Ali, then known as Cassius Clay, when both were teenagers Talbott said he was scrawny and stood just feet inches when he climbed into the ring with Ali, who was well on his way to his adult height, 6-3 Ali seemed not to care that the objective of sparring was to practice technique, not inflict torment, “In the first round, Cassius threw a hard right, and Fred warned him not to hit hard,” Cecil Talbott said “In the second round, Cassius threw another hard right, and Freddie had to warn him again not to it “In my mind, I said, ‘This is not going to work,’ so in the third round, he threw another hard right, and I saw it coming I blocked it and I threw a hard right back Cassius looked at me and said, ‘Good shot.’ ” Talbott gave up boxing soon thereafter, but Ali was hooked McElvaney Talbott, who was in the same class at Central High as Ali’s younger brother, recalled Ali shadowboxing in the halls as he made his way from one class to the next He was smart, she said, but didn’t apply himself in school “He was a cutup,” she said “I just remember he was a lot of fun.” Some mornings, he entertained his schoolmates by racing a dozen blocks or more as he tried to outrun the bus that McElvaney Talbott rode to school “We’d be screaming and hollering and laughing,” she said “We’d be yelling: ‘Go Cassius!’ ” McElvaney Talbott recalled with a laugh: “He’d always stop for the young ladies I called him a big ol’ teddy bear.” One day, she said, he walked her home from a skating rink, shadowboxing on the sidewalk and jabbering away “When we got to my door, he asked me for a kiss,” she said “I regretfully said no, and he didn’t push it.” In 1960, the year Ali graduated from high school, he won the light-heavyweight gold at the Summer Olympics in Rome Upon his return home, he received a hero’s welcome, but the local adulation, like the gold in his medal, did not run deep Instead, discrimination did One had to be a fighter to rise above the daily humiliations of life in a segregated city, McElvaney Talbott said Some leaned on books and learning and religion Ali used his fists and his wit As a child of the segregated South, she said she understood the forces that had carried Ali into the embrace of the Nation of Islam, an American Muslim sect that advocated racial separation (He would later convert to orthodox Islam.) She said she was proud when he refused to be drafted to fight in the Vietnam War and requested conscientious-objector status, which caused him to be stripped of his heavyweight title by boxing commissions around the country and put his career on hiatus for more than three years during his athletic prime “We lived with him through all the injustices,” McElvaney Talbott said “I remember feeling that he was right to refuse to go and feeling really sad when A ‘big ol’ teddy bear’ who wooed the girls by racing the bus on foot they stripped him of his title.” She added, “He was the man for that time.” As his fame grew, his trips home diminished But during his visits, “he was always the hometown boy,” McElvaney Talbott said “If you saw him, he was approachable.” During one of those visits, she said, Ali ran into her older brother, Woody “Give me your address,” she said Ali told her brother An hour later, Ali showed up on his doorstep “I ran into him at the center four years ago,” she said, “and I told him I was Woody’s sister He was struggling with his speech, but his face lit up.” Ali’s younger brother, who was born Rudolph but later converted to Islam and took the name Rahman Ali, spent part of Saturday receiving visitors at a house on Grand Street It was next door to the carnation pink clapboard structure where he and his brother were raised by their mother, Odessa, a cook and house cleaner, and their father, Cassius Marcellus Clay Sr., a sign painter and church muralist The two-bedroom, one-bath home was restored and converted into a museum that opened last month Visitors were greeted at the front door by Sonny Fishback, who was dressed in purple pants and a matching bowler’s shirt as if ready for the nightclub stages he once commanded Fishback attended Central High with Ali and his brother and later became a singer and songwriter Stories flowed freely from him as he controlled the tide of people streaming inside to buy an $8 admission ticket and pay their respects to Rahman Ali, who is as quiet as his brother was loquacious In the bedroom the brothers shared, there are two paintings of Muhammad Ali by Rahman, who is an artist Speaking softly, Rahman said that his brother’s physical suffering was over and that he had led a rich life When it was suggested to him that Ali’s greatest currency was the love he gave away freely and, in his later years, was returned a thousandfold, Rah beckoned the visitor closer and kissed her on the cheek Five miles from the house, at the Green Meadows Memorial Cemetery, which sits on the other side of the railroad tracks, a woman knelt in front of the granite gravestone shared by Ali’s parents, planting marigolds to spell out “Love.” She identified herself as Diana Rupa but said she went by the surname Ali because the boxer embodied kindness and respect and dignity As she was working the dirt around the flowers, she said she had never met Ali but felt a personal and spiritual connection to him Earlier in the day, Rupa had added an elephant piñata to the makeshift shrine for Ali on the porch of his childhood home She set another papier-mâché elephant at his parents’ grave site With their thick skins, their graceful way of moving on their toes and their ability to communicate to their herd without seeming to speak, elephants remind her of Ali The boxer known for running his mouth became a humanitarian who did not have to say a word Referring to his Parkinson’s disease, which so diminished Ali’s voice, Rupa said, “God had to shut him up,” she said, “so that we could hear his heart.” WILLIAM D e SHAZER FOR THE NEW YORK TIMES WILLIAM D e SHAZER FOR THE NEW YORK TIMES Left, Emma McElvaney Talbott and her husband, Cecil Talbott, who knew Muhammad Ali when they were

moments of the 20th century But he also once got into the ring with a Japanese professional wrestler in a bout, sensational at the time, that is almost forgotten today On June 26, 1976, a week before the celebration of the United States’ bicentennial, Ali, the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world, faced off in Tokyo against Antonio Inoki, a very popular wrestler in Japan Organizers promoted the fight as the ultimate test of boxer versus wrestler and proclaimed big paydays for the combatants, supposedly $6 million for Ali and $3 million for Inoki Although the idea of a professional wrestler meeting the heavyweight champion might seem like a joke, it attracted Landing two left jabs and absorbing more than 100 kicks tremendous attention at the time, with mainstream publications writing about it at length Ali gleefully joined in the hunt for publicity, frequently pointing out how much money he was going to be making and how impressively he was going to win There was no television coverage in the United States, and American fight fans had to travel to arenas, stadiums and theaters showing the fight on closed-circuit TV And travel they did More than 30,000 turned up at Shea Stadium The fans at Shea were treated to a preliminary bout: the wrestler Andre the Giant against the boxer Chuck Wepner, known as the Bayonne Bleeder, a game if limited heavyweight sometimes cited as a model for Rocky Balboa The bout lived up to expectations, as Andre lifted Wepner and hurled him from the ring to win in the third round (The fight inspired a scene in “Rocky III” in which Thunderlips, played by Hulk Hogan, does something similar to Rocky.) If that match whetted appetites for Ali-Inoki, fans were destined to be disappointed Ali came into the ring looking like a boxer with standard trunks and boxing gloves Inoki suited up as a wrestler, with tight black trunks and bare hands When the bell rang, Inoki quickly fell to the mat in a crablike posture and began kicking out at Ali’s legs Ali danced around the ring looking for a chance to land a punch but not finding one To the increasing fury of the crowd in Tokyo, and fans watching around the world, the bout continued in this manner for 15 interminable rounds When it was over, the judges scored it an honorable draw and the paying customers hurled garbage at the ring Ali managed only two punches in the fight, both left jabs, The New York Times reported “Ali, Inoki Fight to Draw in Dull Bout” was the headline “I wouldn’t have done this fight if I’d known he was going to that,” Ali said “Nobody knew this was going to happen, so we had a dead show.” “It all proved boxers are superior to wrestlers,” Ali insisted “He didn’t stand up and fight like a man.” Commentators were unimpressed “What was billed as ‘The Martial Arts World Championship Fight’ emerged as The ‘Farcial’ Arts World Championship Ripoff,” Dave Anderson wrote in a Sports of The Times column With a professional wrestler involved, the natural question was whether the bout was fixed The history is murky, and several versions exist In one, the bout was a simple fix, though why a more entertaining spectacle wasn’t arranged is an open question In another telling, Ali came expecting a fixed bout only to discover that Inoki was planning to fight for real In a third version, Ali was told he was expected to lose the fight because of Inoki’s enormous popularity in Japan Ali supposedly refused, turning a staged event into a real one Whatever the truth, Ali’s legs were badly injured in the contest, as he took more than 100 kicks from Inoki BETTMANN ARCHIVE Muhammad Ali shouted at the Japanese wrestler Antonio Inoki, who flopped on his back during their 1976 match Inoki, left, spoke on Saturday Although he expressed a willingness to wrestle again if the price was right, Ali returned to conventional boxing after the Inoki bout He lost and then regained the title against Leon Spinks before losing fights to Larry Holmes and Trevor Berbick, then retiring Inoki, now 73, went on to a career in politics and a seat in Japan’s parliament The bout was a farce, but in a way it was a precursor to the modern spectacle of mixed martial arts in which practitioners of boxing, wrestling, judo, jujitsu and other combat sports can mix it up under unified rules Ali was always a showman, even in the midst of his most serious and important bouts It seems almost fitting that a strange and colorful fight against a professional wrestler in the Budokan in Tokyo would be a footnote to his glorious career SOCCER Argentina Struggles to Prevail, Preferably in Proper Style By JONATHAN GILBERT BUENOS AIRES — For fans of Argentina’s national soccer team, the enduring images of recent tournaments are painful Lionel Messi staring impotently at the World Cup trophy on his way to collecting a second-place medal in 2014 Gonzalo Higuaín sending a penalty kick skyward as Chile won last year’s Copa América final Roberto Ayala turning a cross into his own net in yet another lost Copa final in 2007 Despite the undisputed quality of its roster and its recurring role as a favorite, Argentina heads into its opening match of the Copa América Centenario on Monday cloaked in doubt The uncertainty is stoked by all those recent near misses; by a perennial tug of war over the national team’s style of play; and by the long-running debate about how to get the best out of Messi “Teams can start to believe their curse,” said Jonathan Wilson, a British writer, most recently of a coming book about Argentina’s soccer history If Argentina stumbles again at the Copa — a centenary version of South America’s premier soccer tournament being hosted outside the continent for the first time — the fear is that a generation of offensive talent that includes Messi, who will turn 29 two days before the Copa final, but also Higuaín, Ángel Di María, Sergio Agüero, Javier Pastore and Carlos Tévez may have been wasted “There is no option but to win it,” Javier Mascherano, a midfielder, said shortly before the team flew from Argentina to its base in San Jose, Calif For some observers, the sense of urgency is intensified by the diminished quality of Argentina’s new batch of players Since its triumph at the 1993 Copa América, Argentina has not won another major tournament, losing six finals along the way Its last World Cup championship was 30 years ago this summer, when a Diego Maradona-led Albiceleste lifted the trophy in Mexico Back then, the coach was Carlos Bilardo, a former physician whose laborious and structured approach prioritized results, not the process that led to them “Soccer is played to win,” Bilardo is quoted as saying in COPA AMÉRICA ROUNDUP Anthem Misses Mark, But Mexico Is on Target By The Associated Press DANIEL GARCIA/AGENCE FRANCE-PRESS — GETTY IMAGES Argentina’s Roberto Ayala, above, after scoring an own goal during a 3-0 loss to Brazil in the 2007 Copa América final The Argentine Lionel Messi, right, removing his second-place medal after a 1-0 loss to Germany in the 2014 World Cup final Wilson’s book “Shows are for the theater.” In 1978, however, the only other time Argentina won the World Cup, the coach was César Luis Menotti Menotti was Bilardo’s antithesis, a thinker and idealist who believed there was intrinsic value in aesthetics He prized possession, nurtured artistry in offense and encouraged players to improvise “The essence of Argentine soccer is freedom,” Alberto Tarantini, a defender on the 1978 team, said in an interview “If you fill players’ heads with tactical systems, you inhibit them.” While intellectual struggles between pragmatism and purity have driven soccer narratives in many corners of the world, it is in Argentina, perhaps, that the dichotomy most shapes the battle for the soul of the game The schism is often traced to Argentina’s disastrous exit from the 1958 World Cup, which was long before Menotti and Bilardo entered the picture And today, although a new generation of Argentine coaches has been emerging with broader influences, the debate remains fierce “Argentine soccer is very rich in this discussion of ‘How should we win?’ ” said Ezequiel Fernández Moores, a prominent Argentine soccer columnist, who noted that feuding was prone to escalate around tournaments involving the national team Underscoring how Argentina has recently produced both a preternatural offensive talent like Messi and a coach like Atlético Madrid’s Diego Simeone, whose teams are celebrated for their defensive grit, Fernández Moores said, “The dispute will be eternal.” Even as the two ideologies have slowly converged, Gerardo Martino, Argentina’s current coach, who guided the team to the Copa América final a year ago in Chile, has not escaped clashes over the nation’s soccer identity Pointing to the continuing tensions, Higuaín was asked at a recent news conference here whether it was more important for Martino to end Argentina’s trophy drought or to win over fans to his preferred playing style Martino adheres loosely to the philosophy of Marcelo Bielsa, a pioneering former coach of the national team with a cult following Bielsa forged a middle path between Menotti and Bilardo, though his quixotic obsession with possession and offense did not translate into the kind of international success Argentina still craves “I’d like the team to stand out for the way it plays,” Martino told Diario Popular, an Argentine newspaper, last year, “but also because of the final result.” While Argentina briefly dazzled at the 2015 Copa América, beating LAURENCE GRIFFITHS/GETTY IMAGES Paraguay, 6-1, in its semifinal, it was more muted in the final Facing a Chile team that embraced Bielsa’s doctrine under its own Argentine coach, Jorge Sampaoli, Martino’s side played cautiously and lost To many observers, Argentina’s performance mirrored those at the 2014 World Cup directed by Alejandro Sabella, a coach dismissed by some fans who considered him too negative With this friction as a backdrop, the great conundrum confronting Martino remains how to make Messi sparkle Voted the world’s best player in five of the past seven years because of his thrilling performances at Barcelona, where he scored 37 goals last season, Messi has shown only fleeting brilliance in the blue and white stripes of his Argentina jersey There is added pressure on Messi in this month’s Copa América since, for many fans, his place alongside Maradona as one of the sport’s (and his country’s) greatest players depends on his lifting a major trophy with the national team Expectations for him at the tournament are predictably lofty “If the game is in stalemate, we need to be able to give the ball to Messi for him to win it,” Martino said in a recent interview with the newspaper La Nación But there have been concerns about Messi as the tournament approached He flew from Spain to Argentina to play in a friendly on May 27 — in which he was substituted after a bruising blow to his back — and then swiftly returned to testify in a tax-evasion trial He rejoined his teammates during the weekend, although the back injury looks set to sideline him from the first game against Chile on Monday night at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif Martino has other problems, too Messi aside, several key players are fighting to overcome injuries before the Chile match And — not for the first time — at home, the Argentine soccer federation is mired in a dispute with the government that briefly jeopardized the national team’s participation in the Copa Inevitably, too, debate is already accelerating about what it would mean for Argentine soccer and Martino if the team failed to triumph, or won with insufficient flair “Whatever happens,” Pablo Lucero, 22, a soccer player for a minor league team here, said, “we always complain.” Rafa Márquez and Héctor Herrera scored late goals to lift Mexico over Uruguay, 3-1, on Sunday night in Glendale, Ariz., in an opening-round Copa América Centenario match that began on a sour note: the wrong national anthem A vastly pro-Mexico crowd of 60,025 watched the matchup of what were considered the top teams in Group C Márquez’s close-range shot in the 84th minute broke a 1-1 tie, and Herrera scored on a header from just outside the net in extra time Mexico’s other score was an own-goal by Uruguay’s Alvaro Pereira four minutes into the match Márquez’s goal came 10 minutes after Diego Godín’s header tied it for Uruguay at 1-1 Chile’s national anthem was played instead of Uruguay’s during the prematch ceremonies, prompting the Uruguayan players to stand silently on the field at University of Phoenix Stadium, many with blank stares Copa América said the mistake was “a human error.” TURNOVER BOOSTS VENEZUELA Josef Martínez slotted a leftfooted shot under goalkeeper Andre Blake in the 15th minute and Venezuela beat 10-man Jamaica, 1-0, in a Group C opener in Chicago Martínez’s goal was set up by a Jamaican giveaway on a clearance attempt

off in the 23rd minute after he received a straight red card for a studs-up tackle on Venezuela’s Tomás Rincón Michael Hector nearly tied it for Jamaica on a right-footed shot that hit the post in the 49th minute, and Blake had a diving save in the 70th minute to keep the deficit at one goal D6 THE NEW YORK TIMES, MONDAY, JUNE 6, 2016 N TENNIS FRENCH OPEN Djokovic Wins Elusive French Title From First Sports Page nomenal Winning all four of the Grand Slams in one year is an amazing achievement It’s something that is so rare in tennis You know it’s not happened for an extremely long time, and it’s going to take a long time for it to happen again Everyone here who came to watch is extremely lucky to see it.” Murray then made it clear that he was not so delighted to have been the foil, but that he had the wider view in mind “I’m proud to have been part of it today,” he said Though Djokovic has won the four major tournaments in the last 12 months, he has not won them all in the same calendar year, which is what defines the true Grand Slam But he is now in position to chase one of the ultimate prizes in international sports “I don’t want to sound arrogant, but I really think everything is achievable in life,” Djokovic said If he could win Wimbledon and the United States Open this year, and the singles title at the Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro in August, he would give new meaning to his childhood coach Jelena Gencic’s vision of his potential by completing the so-called Golden Slam He has grown up to be quite a champion; an articulate one, too Few tennis players have better described their state of mind during a breakthrough victory than Djokovic did on Sunday After wresting control of the match and the baseline from Murray early in the second set, he ended up serving for the title first at 5-2 in the fourth He was broken and then got a second chance to serve for it at 5-4 From 40-15, he failed to convert on two championship points But at deuce, Djokovic won the next exchange by attacking and coming forward to hit a swing volley winner He then won the final point when Murray’s backhand landed in the net to conclude a 20stroke rally that was an apt reflection of the physical demands that Murray and Djokovic, with their similar gifts and game styles, impose on each other Djokovic said he felt his body was “on autopilot” during that final rally “I think between 5-2 and 5-4 and actually closing out the match, a lot has happened in my mind and in my soul,” Djokovic said “Just 15-Year-Old Takes Loss as Motivation By BEN ROTHENBERG PARIS — Three times, Felix Auger Aliassime was one point from claiming the boys’ singles title at the French Open on Sunday But with a budding career well ahead of schedule, Auger Aliassime will have to wait just a little bit longer for a victory on the biggest stages of the sport At 15 years 10 months, Auger Aliassime would have been the youngest boys’ champion at Roland Garros But this day belonged to 17-year-old Geoffrey Blancaneaux of France, who saved three match points to win the final, 1-6, 6-3, 8-6, to the delight of the raucous French fans who poured into Court just before the men’s final Auger Aliassime, who raced through the first set, 6-1, in only 24 minutes, initially took the marathon defeat hard, throwing his rackets onto the ground as the crowd chanted and sang “La Marseillaise” for Blancaneaux Yannick Noah, the French Davis Cup captain and last Frenchman to have won a major singles title, when he won here in 1983, watched the match from the second row and cheered for Blan- caneaux, but he leapt onto the court to comfort Auger Aliassime upon seeing his distress The scene drew different reactions from the crowd, depending on which angle they had on Noah, who in his haste was blissfully oblivious to his beltless trousers A former French champion consoles a runner-up sliding further and further down as he spoke to Auger Aliassime “I’m thankful for what he did,” Auger Aliassime said of Noah in an interview on TSN “It’s really motivating to have such a legend talk to you afterwards.” Auger Aliassime said he was quickly able to put his disappointment in perspective “I thought about it, and I know I have a lot of time in front of me,” he said “But, yeah, it was tough It’s still tough to take the loss after getting so close, that’s for sure.” DENNIS GROMBKOWSKI/GETTY IMAGES Geoffrey Blancaneaux of France, above, defeated Felix Auger Aliassime of Canada to win the French Open boys’ title Auger Aliassime has achieved many milestones He became the youngest player to win a match at an ATP Challenger Tour event last July when he won two rounds in Granby, Canada He subsequently became the youngest to be ranked in the ATP top 800 (His current ranking is 619th.) At feet and visibly strong, Auger Aliassime said he did not feel overmatched by the adults he faced on the lower rungs of the tour “I always knew in the back of my mind that if I did the work and stayed passionate and motivated, one day it would come,” he said “And it hasn’t come yet, but I know I’m getting closer every day that I put the work in Since I’ve got my first points last year, my first wins in the Challenger, I knew that someday I could maintain a constant level in the pro tour.” He does have obstacles other professionals lack, however Before he returns to Europe for Wimbledon, Auger Aliassime will head home to Montreal to take final exams to complete his sophomore year of high school “That’s my life, that’s how it is,” he said “Every time I’m in Montreal I have school Of course I don’t have a normal 15-year-old’s life But with the years we kind of get used to it, and I’m happy with what I do, so I don’t feel like I make any sacrifices It’s my passion.” Auger Aliassime lives and trains in Montreal, where he was born in 2000 to a Québécois mother, Marie Auger, and Togolese father, Sam Aliassime His father is a tennis coach, and Felix began to play the game when he was 4, alongside his older sister, Malika With success coming quickly at each tier he has tried, Auger Aliassime has enticed agents and sponsors — dozens swarmed to his second-round match at the United States Open last year against the American Tommy Paul — although he has yet to turn professional “I take it as motivation,” he said of the attention “These people expect a lot from me, and I expect a lot from me That’s what keeps me hungry to win more and have more success.” In the girls’ final, Rebeka Masarova, 16, of Switzerland defeated Amanda Anisimova, 14, of Freehold, N.J., 7-5, 7-5 DENNIS GROMBKOWSKI/GETTY IMAGES With his victory Sunday at Roland Garros, Novak Djokovic now holds all four major tennis singles titles at the same time being filled with joy, kind of serving for a match, being like overwhelmed with positive emotions and sensations And then, you know, getting myself to the opposite side where I’m tense and nervous, whether or not I can close it out But I guess in order for me to win this trophy, I had to go through that To achieve big things in life, when you that, you need to push yourself above the limit.” Djokovic, who beat Murray to win the Australian Open and the French Open this year, is now the first man to complete the first two legs of the Grand Slam since Jim Courier in 1992 This was also Djokovic’s 12th Grand Slam singles title, tying him with Roy Emerson for fourth on the career list and putting him in increasingly close range of his rivals Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal Federer has the men’s record with 17 major singles titles; Nadal and Pete Sampras are next with 14 But Djokovic is still at the peak of his powers and still paying close attention to the details — diet, recovery, flexibility — that might help him stay at the summit longer than usual “In the beginning, I was not glad to be part of their era,” he said of Federer and Nadal “Later on, I realized that everything happens for a reason You’re put in this position with a purpose, a purpose to learn and grow and evolve.” Djokovic is quite a conundrum for the opposition with his fasttwitch returns, improved serve and elastic, tight-to-the-baseline groundstrokes He is very quick laterally and increasingly fast and effective coming forward Both 29 and born a week apart, Djokovic and Murray have been rivals since their European junior days Murray has had his moments: beating Djokovic to win the United States Open and, above all, Wimbledon, where Murray put an end to a 77-year drought for British men in singles But he could not find a way to end Britain’s 81-year men’s drought at Roland Garros Many a great player has faltered here The list includes one of Djokovic’s coaches, Boris Becker But Djokovic, who had lost three of the last four French Open finals, is now on a different list, and Becker was soon holding the French Open trophy in the locker room as part of a team Not long before, Gustavo Kuerten, a threetime French Open champion, watched after having given Djokovic permission, just in case, to reprise Kuerten’s 2001 victory celebration The title secure, Djokovic fell to the clay and lay spread-eagled on his back before rising and jogging to embrace Murray, who had stepped over the net to greet him Djokovic soon returned to the baseline and followed Kuerten’s precedent, drawing a heart in the clay with his racket and then lying on his back again inside it He was a man complete, a champion complete, and the sun — of all things — soon joined him THE NEW YORK TIMES, MONDAY, JUNE 6, 2016 N D7 TENNIS FRENCH OPEN A Circumstance Hard to Escape By DAVID WALDSTEIN PARIS — Andy Murray was born May 15, 1987, in Glasgow, a wee lad destined to resurrect Britain’s fortunes in men’s tennis But one week later, another boy came into this world in Belgrade in the former Yugoslavia, one who would go on to torment Murray on tennis courts around the world Such is Murray’s misfortune: to be almost the exact same age as Novak Djokovic, the best player in the world and one of the most dominant of any era “His performances over the last 18 months to two years have been exceptional,” Murray said Sunday after losing to Djokovic for the fifth time in a major tournament final “He deserves to be No 1.” It is the same timing that has plagued other players, such as Andy Roddick, in their rivalries with Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal Wilt Chamberlain confronted a similar fate playing against Bill Russell and the Boston Celtics all those years in the N.B.A For a while, the elite group of men’s tennis players known as the Big Four comprised Murray, Federer, Nadal and Djokovic Perhaps Murray was only on the cusp of acceptance, having won fewer titles, but he was a factor in who won the big tournaments As injury and age chipped away at the aura of invincibility that Federer and Nadal once enjoyed, Djokovic surged into the top position Murray may have passed Federer and Nadal to claim No in the world, but he is still looking up Murray’s position was confirmed again Sunday when Djokovic stormed from a set down to thrash him, 3-6, 6-1, 6-2, 6-4, in the French Open final It was the 24th time Djokovic had beaten Murray in 34 career matches, and the eighth time in 10 meetings at major tournaments Murray has beaten Djokovic twice in a major final — at the United States Open in 2012 and at Wimbledon the following year But since then, Djokovic has won 13 of 15 matches, including five in a row in the majors The gap seems to be widening Sunday’s victory was Djokovic’s fourth major title in a row, something no one had achieved since Rod Laver in 1969 Djokovic joined Federer and GOLF Gulbis’s Motivation Turns to Motherhood By TIM CASEY GALLOWAY TOWNSHIP, N.J — After Natalie Gulbis finished her rounds on Friday and Saturday at the ShopRite L.P.G.A Classic, dozens of fans lined up near the green to interact with her As Gulbis walked off the course, she signed autographs, posed for photos and engaged in small talk with anyone who approached “Can we get a picture with my daughter?” one woman asked on Saturday “Yeah, of course,” Gulbis said Despite her 441st placement in the women’s world golf rankings, Gulbis remains among the sport’s most popular and affable players This was her seventh consecutive appearance at this event, although she was hoping she would not be here this year Gulbis and her husband, Josh Rodarmel, are eager to start a family “I’ve been trying to have a baby,” Gulbis said “I’ve gone through a whole bunch of different ways to try to have children.” For now, Gulbis, 33, is still on the L.P.G.A Tour, albeit on a reduced schedule She returned to competition in April after a nearly seven-month absence So far this year, she has missed the cut in each of her five tournaments She shot a one-over-par 143 this weekend and failed to make the cut for the fifth consecutive year in this three-round tournament Gulbis said she did not know how much longer she would compete If she becomes pregnant and has a child, she may decide to retire “I think I want to stay home, but I love golf, so I want to stay around golf,” she said “If I have the opportunity to something in golf, it’s part of me Golf’s in my blood I’ll be around here doing something, I’m sure.” Gulbis has juggled the demands of playing and pursuing off-course activities since she turned professional in 2001 after her freshman year at the University of Arizona She was once among the sport’s most promising prospects She competed on the United States Solheim Cup teams in 2005, 2007 and 2009 Still, even back then, she had higher ambitions than simply winning She served as a paid endorser and spokeswoman for several brands She also appeared in her own reality show on Golf Channel and in the second season of NBC’s HUNTER MARTIN/GETTY IMAGES Natalie Gulbis on Saturday at the ShopRite L.P.G.A Classic, where she missed the cut “Celebrity Apprentice,” which was hosted by Donald J Trump Last week, Gulbis wrote an article for Golf.com about her experiences with Trump and their shared passion for golf and business She wrote that she last saw him at last year’s British Women’s Open, where they discussed Turnberry, the site of the tournament and the course that Trump owns Trump also asked Gulbis about Lydia Ko, 19, the top-ranked women’s player “As usual, he wanted to know more about winners,” Gulbis wrote “That never-ending desire to learn more about and from the best in any field, that’s the Donald Trump I know.” Gulbis, whose only L.P.G.A Tour victory came in 2007, has battled numerous injuries and ailments the past few years She has had three back operations and contracted malaria in early 2013 Later that year, she finished tied for ninth at the British Women’s Open, her last top-10 finish Since the start of the 2014 season, she has missed the cut or withdrawn in 19 of 31 tournaments “If you anything in 15 years and you live a public life, it’s going to get documented,” Gulbis said “It just happens Athletes get sick and they get injured, and we travel all over the world The fact that I would catch something is no surprise But I feel great now, knock on wood.” During Friday’s opening round, she showed some promise with five birdies en route to a two-under-par 69, which was five shots off the lead It was her first below- par round since last July, a span of eight tournaments The next day, Gulbis teed off on the 10th hole and made birdie before carding three bogeys and a triple bogey on her front nine She then had two birdies for a two-under 35 on her back nine, but she still missed the cut by two strokes Still, Gulbis seemed satisfied to be out on the course and around some of her longtime tour colleagues, including Christina Kim, 32, whom she has known since they were young rivals in Northern California Although Gulbis and Kim are no longer in their prime, they were among the most popular players this weekend They took their turns after rounds to speak with fans and fulfill their requests, which the former L.P.G.A Tour players Beth Daniel, Meg Mallon, Juli Inkster, Nancy Lopez and others encouraged them to when they were first starting out “As we got our cards on tour, we were taught to respect our spectators, respect our sponsors, because without them, we wouldn’t have these events,” Kim said Kim added, laughing, “Even though you’re not necessarily having the best day, there are still people that are coming out and basically wasting their time watching us.” The crowds following Gulbis this weekend saw a player who looks familiar but deals with unseen pain because of her past injuries She said she typically arrives at the course two hours before her tee time and does warm-up exercises for her back for an hour And yet, she’s still out there with the same caddy (Greg Sheridan) she has had for 12 years and the same coach (Butch Harmon) she has had for 15 On the side, she makes sponsor appearances, raises money for charities and hosts a television show with Jimmy Hanlin on Fox Sports regional networks For now, though, those are just part-time projects She remains a golfer who is not sure how much longer she will be on tour “I feel like, in 2010, I started counting down years,” Gulbis said “I got told that I should retire in 2010 because of my back I don’t know I try not to plan it because you just don’t know I don’t know If I’m fortunate enough to be able to play, I love playing And if I’m pregnant, I probably won’t be playing.” DENNIS GROMBKOWSKI/GETTY IMAGES Andy Murray after his defeat Sunday It was his eighth loss in 10 major tournaments to Novak Djokovic Both players are 29 Nadal as a part of a select group who have career Grand Slams Murray still lacks the French and Australian titles, and Djokovic has defeated Murray four times in the final in Australia “Obviously, the guys I have been around the last few years have made things difficult for me,” Murray said “I mean, you know, I have been close-ish to winning all of the slams now and, unfortunately, all of them have done it instead.” In order to get past Djokovic, or at least back to his level, Murray may have to make adjustments One former French Open champion, Billie Jean King, said that Murray had not reached his potential and that if he addressed his on-court demeanor, it could make the difference Murray is well-known for his midmatch mutterings — his looks of anguish, his self-deprecating explosions after mistakes and his audible complaints directed toward his coaching staff in the stands “All that is a copout,” King said “I’ve done that I’ve done it myself It means I’m not taking responsibility If he accepts responsibility, he will be so tough.” She noted that when she and Craig Kardon coached Martina Navratilova, they would fine her every time she looked at them “Craig and I said, ‘Martina, every time you even look at us, it’s money for Billie and beers for Craig,’” she said “And it worked It’s a fun way to make your point.” Djokovic has had his own issues with temper, even at this tournament He may also understand the frustration Murray experiences when playing him Djokovic endured it, too, when he first came on tour at a time when Federer played as if all the tournaments were his to win Many times, Djokovic said how important it was to use that challenge and competition to improve But there was a time when he wondered if he would suffer the fate of players like Roddick, a terrific player but not at the level of the best of his day “At the beginning, I was not glad to be part of their era,” Djokovic said Sunday with a laugh Both Djokovic and Murray benefited from being a few years younger than Federer, who will turn 35 on Aug Nadal turned 30 last week, but his long list of injuries has ravaged his body Since Murray and Djokovic are only a week apart, though, Murray may never see Djokovic experience the limitations of age before he does Before Sunday’s final, clay was thought to be an answer Murray had defeated Djokovic in Rome before coming to Paris According to Gustavo Kuerten, the threetime French Open champion, Murray has what it takes to win it all, even with Djokovic playing “His game is close,” Kuerten said “It’s good enough It’s just a matter of doing it more consistently.” D8 N THE NEW YORK TIMES, MONDAY, JUNE 6, 2016 BASKETBALL A Basketball Dynasty’s

“nervous wreck”; of how after winning one title there, he and his players celebrated at the Copacabana nightclub; of the joy he felt in that moment, after capturing another championship, when Mikan lifted him onto his shoulders And it was early one recent evening, in front of a shelf stuffed with worn books on his Minneapolis Lakers and on basketball history, that Kundla spoke about his life, and the game that has defined it Born in Star Junction, Pa., Kundla moved to Minneapolis at age with his mother, an Austro-Hungarian immigrant Neither spoke English But Kundla learned the language — and basketball — and went on to star in high school and at the University of Minnesota In 1937, The New York Times heralded the 6-foot-2 Kundla as one “of the finest players in the Midwest.” In the early 1940s, he coached at Ascension, a Catholic grade school, Kundla served in the Navy during World War II after playing college basketball and then at DeLaSalle, a high school on an island in the Mississippi River After serving in the Navy during World War II — he played pickup basketball games on a ship in the Atlantic Ocean, he said — he coached at the College of St Thomas in St Paul In 1947, two Minnesota businessmen bought the Detroit Gems, a team in the National Basketball League that had disbanded after a 440 season The new club was called the Lakers, and Kundla, at 31, became its coach The franchise signed Jim Pollard, a swift and high-leaping 6-4 forward, and Mikan, the 6-10 center who wore thick glasses and had an unstoppable hook shot with each hand Kundla developed set plays, including a two-man game involving his two superstars, and preached wise shot selection “Don’t shoot too quick,” he urged his players “Nobody in for a rebound.” He emphasized fundamentals, like sprinting back on defense after missed shots and communicating passionately while defending screens The Lakers were 43-17 and won the 1948 N.B.L championship The next season, they joined the B.A.A (which the N.B.A considers its predecessor), defeating the Washington Capitols, coached by Auerbach, in the finals The Lakers played most of their home games at Minneapolis Auditorium, which had steep seats and a theatrical stage behind one basket Christgau, 82, who attended Lakers games there growing up, recalls peering through the arena’s cigar smoke during timeouts to see an “always calm and cool” Kundla, with “players all clumped around him, like a hog pile, all listening and paying attention.” Road trips often meant long journeys by train, during which Kundla and his players bonded over card games “It was like a family playing for John,” said Arnie Ferrin, 90, who played for the Lakers from 1948 to 1951 Before the 1949-50 season, the B.A.A and the N.B.L merged to form the N.B.A The Lakers acquired the rookies Vern Mikkelsen, a rugged and savvy big man, and Slater Martin, a short, fast-legged Texan known for gritty defense They were 51-17 and beat the Syracuse Nationals in the championship Guard Pep Saul, whom the Lakers purchased in 1952, was struck by how quiet Kundla was compared with other coaches If a player made a mistake, “he didn’t holler at you,” Saul, 92, said “He would talk to you like a man and say, ‘Here’s what you have to to correct it.’ He was a teacher as well as a coach.” The Lakers kept winning, even after the league doubled the lane’s width in 1951 to slow down Mikan, who had led the N.B.A with more than 27 points per game for three straight seasons They beat the Knicks in the 1952 and 1953 championships, and in 1954, they won their third straight title and fifth in six years By late 1956, Mikan and Pollard had retired The game had evolved: Scoring was up — the shot clock had been instituted in 1954 — and the racial makeup of the league was changing The Lakers’ title teams had been all white; in the 1958-59 season, the team had three black players The Lakers were 33-39 that season Behind the rookie Elgin Baylor, they advanced to the championship before falling to the Boston Celtics, led by Bob Cousy and Bill Russell Kundla resigned at age 42 with a 423-302 record (In 1960, the Lakers moved to Los Angeles, becoming the league’s first West Coast team.) Kundla, meanwhile, took over as head coach at the University of Minnesota During his tenure, the basketball program included black players for the first time, and he became its first coach to give scholarships to African-American players (Hate mail arrived regularly at his house, he said.) Led by the future N.B.A All-Stars Lou Hudson and Archie Clark, the Gophers were 17-7 in 1963-64 and 19-5 in 1964-65 In 1968, Kundla retired, finishing his career there with a 110105 record He accepted a position teaching physical education on the university’s St Paul campus, including courses in basketball and tennis He and his wife, Marie, who had met as undergraduates, had raised six children in a white, two-story suburban house with a wooden hoop nailed to the garage The couple went ice skating together every Tuesday and took their children on fishing trips In 1981, Kundla retired from teaching Throughout the years, he had remained close with Mikan and Mikkelsen; often, the three would meet for breakfast, and reminisce In a 1992 column for USA Today, Peter Vecsey, lamenting Kundla’s exclusion from the Hall of Fame, labeled him “all but forgotten.” From Kundla’s second-floor window, one can see beyond the river, to downtown Minneapolis, where the Lakers’ arena once stood He moved into this assisted living community in 2008, the year after Marie died, after 67 years of marriage Kundla’s son James, a retired railroad track worker, walks over every morning from his nearby home and keeps him company Once a month, Kundla rides by bus with fellow residents to a church downtown for bingo and lunch organized by the League of Catholic Women He also plays bingo downstairs and at an adjoining nursing home, where he sits beside residents in need and helps them with their cards Kundla keeps his own winnings, green notes called Bingo Bucks, in a billfold in the cupboard under his TV, which he redeems every Friday for Hershey bars At night, Kundla, who has short silver hair and wears hearing aids, watches TV programs like “Dancing With the Stars” and reruns of “The Lawrence Welk Show.” Earlier this year, James said, the cable company offered a free promotion allowing Kundla to watch N.B.A games daily But when the deal expired, the additional cost was “not in the budget,” James said Kundla listens to Minnesota Timberwolves games on the radio, and when he watches a game on TV, he looks for those “little things,” he said — like distinguishing between a good and bad shot — that consumed him as a Lakers coach Basketball has changed for the better, he said Defensive intensity has improved (“Jeez, they get after you!” he said), and when a team hustles back on defense after a missed shot, he is delighted The 3-point shot excites him “That’s the big difference,” he said “You get behind — you can catch up, you know?” Referring to today’s players, Kundla said: “It’s unbelievable how big they’ve grown But there’s still finesse in there — the way they handle that ball, pass it around.” For Kundla, who turns 100 on July (“Another day and I would have been born with a bang,” he likes to say), proper recognition came relatively late in life: He was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame at age 78, in 1995 The next year, for the PHOTOGRAPHS BY TIM GRUBER FOR THE NEW YORK TIMES John Kundla, above, a Hall of Fame coach, “would talk to you like a man,” said Pep Saul, 92, a former player A basketball, top, signed by Kundla and some of his players, adorning Kundla’s apartment Kundla received rings, center, after his Basketball Hall of Fame induction in 1995 A photo of Kundla and his wife, Marie, above She died in 2007 after they were married for 67 years “N.B.A at 50” celebration, he was voted one of the top 10 coaches in league history In 2002, during a ceremony at Staples Center in Los Angeles, Kundla and living Minneapolis Lakers players were awarded championship rings, and two banners commemorating their dynasty were raised Since then, four of the five Hall of Famers who played on Kundla’s title teams have died: Mikan, Mikkelsen, Martin and Clyde Lovellette (Pollard died in 1993.) Bob Harrison, 88, who hit a long buzzer-beater for the Lakers to win Game of the inaugural postmerger N.B.A championship in 1950, was emotional when reached at his home in Palm City, Fla., and asked about Kundla In 1954, Harrison said, upon being traded to the Milwaukee Hawks, Kundla sat him down and apologized “He made me feel important,” Harrison said “A lot of coaches are more interested in building their reputation, and John wasn’t like that Naturally, he wanted to win, and he did But he did it with kindness and love.” One evening in May, Kundla sat glued to a TV in the dimly lit lounge down the hall from his apartment, watching Game of the Eastern Conference finals “Look at the tattoos on the shoulders — jeez,” Kundla said, as the Cavaliers’ J R Smith shot free throws in the first quarter The second quarter was a noisy blur of fast breaks, alley-oops and acrobatic layups by the host Cavaliers Kundla looked riveted, gradually inching his wheelchair closer to the screen On one play, Cavaliers guard Kyrie Irving blew past a defender on a fancy behind-the-back dribble and converted a layup “Jeez,” Kundla muttered, “poor defense there by Toronto.” With the Cavaliers ahead by 15, Kundla watched as LeBron James drove the baseline, cupped the ball in his right hand and dunked ferociously, screaming in celebration as he backpedaled “Oh, my God, another one,” Kundla said At halftime, Kundla returned to his room A nurse arrived to check in and then left, and Kundla was alone On a desk next to his bed was a picture of Kundla and Marie on their wedding day, and a photo of a smiling Mikkelsen in his later years, signed: “To John, my leader and good friend.” Kundla settled into bed It was dark now, but from the wall by his pillow came a radiant orange glow: from a tiny night light, in the design of a basketball THE NEW YORK TIMES, MONDAY, JUNE 6, 2016 D9 0N S C O R E B OA R D First-Time Tour Winner Takes the Memorial PRO BASKETBALL East By KAREN CROUSE DUBLIN, Ohio — The top three players in the world came into the Memorial Tournament fresh off victories A lot of good that did them Rory McIlroy, the world’s No golfer, backed into a tie for fourth Top-ranked Jason Day finished tied for 27th, and Jordan Spieth was tied for 57th The top three, who had combined for 15 top-10 finishes in 32 starts this season, were no match for William McGirt and Jon Curran, who came into the week with a combined six top-10 showings in 38 total starts McGirt closed with a one-under-par 71, and Curran a 70, to finish regulation tied for the lead at 15-under 273 In the playoff, only one outcome was certain: A first-time PGA Tour winner would be crowned With a par on the second extra hole, McGirt picked up his first victory in his 165th tour start, while Curran extended his winless streak to 55 tour appearances McGirt’s closing round consisted of one birdie, at No 5, and 19 pars, including the playoff But there was nothing routine about his last par, in which he chipped to feet from thick rough after overshooting the green and made the uphill putt while the tournament host, Jack Nicklaus, looked on “It’s a pretty darn cool feeling right now to get win No 1, and for it to be here at the Memorial in front of Mr Nicklaus,” McGirt said McIlroy was the leader in the clubhouse for much of the afternoon after signing for his 68 before a weather front moved in His round included bogeys on the par-3 12th after his tee shot landed on the green and the par-4 14th after his drive found the fairway Those two bogeys represented the margin separating him from McGirt “All things considered, it’s been a decent week,” said McIlroy, who finished tied with J B Holmes (69), Gary Woodland (73) and Matt Kuchar (73) at 13-under 275 Blame the wind for the tumult on the Memorial Tournament leader board The sweltering heat earlier in the week gave way to electrical storms BASEBALL A.L STANDINGS Baltimore W over the weekend that caused weather delays totaling almost three hours After the last of the interruptions, a 1hour-27-minute delay on Sunday with the leaders on the back nine, the wind picked up and the players returned to what seemed a different course The final holes were playing downwind, which brought into play fairway bunkers that Curran, making his Muirfield Village debut, had not even noticed were there He hit into two of them down the stretch — on the penultimate hole in regulation and on his drive at the 18th on the second playoff hole On No 17, he hit out to feet and made the birdie to tie McGirt Curran’s approach on No 18 on the second extra hole sailed the green Looking back, he said, he probably should have used his 9-iron out of the sand instead of trying to take something off an “Maybe I was nervous, maybe it was a little adrenaline,” Curran said “I just smashed it, and it got up in the wind and took it even further left.” Neither Curran nor McGirt said they felt comfortable off the tee McGirt took advantage of the weather delay to work on his swing in the clubhouse He described the break as “huge.” His career-high finish before this week, a tie for second at last fall’s Sanderson Farms Championship, was marked by numerous weather delays, necessitating a Monday finish Nicklaus, a 73-time tour winner, praised the play of McGirt and Curran down the stretch “A lot of guys had an opportunity to win this golf tournament today,” he said, adding: “The guys kept self-destructing And the only two guys who didn’t self-destruct were Will and Jon They both came right down the stretch, both playing well, and that’s what we ended up with.” Curran was standing off to the side of the green, staring into the distance, trying to make sense, he said, of what had just happened, when Nicklaus came up to him and tapped him on the right shoulder and patted him on the stomach He congratulated him on his fine play and told him he was going to win “a lot of tournaments,” an exchange that Curran described as “pretty cool.” As was made plain Sunday, sometimes the winner is not the flashiest player, merely the steadiest “I won half of my golf tournaments watching everyone else self-destruct,” Nicklaus said as a wide-eyed McGirt on his every word GB — 33 24 579 — Toronto 31 27 534 2{ Yankees 26 30 464 6{ Tampa Bay 25 30 455 W L Pct GB Cleveland 31 24 564 — Kansas City 30 26

government crumbled and had been admitted to the United States for cancer treatment in October, be returned to stand trial Colonel Schaefer showed defiance early on, beginning a hunger strike on Thanksgiving to protest deprivations, including the lack of mail On the fifth day, he told The New York Times soon after his release, his captors placed a plate of spaghetti in front of him, pointed an automatic rifle at him and said, “You will eat now.” “I was so hungry, I was going to eat anyway,” he said Colonel Schaefer was questioned daily for long periods over a two-week stretch late in the

Wells in the 1985 book “444 Days: The Hostages Remember.” “The interrogations took place in a room without any heat I could see my breath for the entire time I was in there All I had was one thin blanket and a folding metal chair “The interrogations ended after two weeks when I said, ‘Hey, take me and shoot me I’ve had enough.’ Within 20 minutes I was taken into a warm room, and there were no
