No, I don't recognise:

- Which edition of MASS?
- I don't see "hulda" nor "hu.ld". Really, do you expect us to read 
through the whole book again to search for some object called "hu.ld"???
- Which Chapter/Section?
- Please specify a reproducible example, as the posting guide ask you to do.

Let me guess: Clipping occured and you may or may not want to rearrange 
spaces or set something like par(xpd=NA).

This version of R is really outdated these days. If my guess mentioned 
above is wrong, please try out R-2.1.0 beta and specify a reproducible 
example.
