Hi Kathryn,
One way (there are many others) is to use the brkdn function in the 
prettyR package. You have to create a grouping variable, but it's pretty 
easy...

group1<-rep(1:3,each=nr[1,])
group2<-rep(1:3,each=nr[2,])
y.df<-data.frame(y=y,group1=group1,group2=group2)
brkdn(y~group1,y.df,num.desc=c("mean","var"))
brkdn(y~group2,y.df,num.desc=c("mean","var"))
