Howdy,

How about \section[Short Name]{Line One\\Line Two}. Of course you've got to
make your own line breaks using this method.

Or \section[Short Name]{A Very Long Section Title That Wraps Auto-magically
and Looks OK with Wraps at the Right Place!}.

In both cases make sure to use the optional argument: Short Name will appear
in the Table of Contents.

Good Luck,
