Even in the Democratic South, some relatively young Republicans are giving Democratic incumbents a rough go. In Georgia's Fifth District, Atlanta Lawyer Randolph William Thrower, 43, former filling-station attendant, FBI agent and Marine captain, is close on the heels of arch-segregationist Representative James C. Davis, 61, who was Georgia's presidential nominee at the Democratic National Convention, and has since held carefully stacked House subcommittee hearings on integration in the District of Columbia's schools (TIME, Oct.1). In Kentucky's Sixth District, Fayette County's Republican Sheriff Wallace ("Wah Wah") Jones...
...shepherd of the flock in tidy, suburban Woodford, just outside Manchester, the slim, silver-haired Rev. Philip St. John (rhymes with Injun) Wilson Ross, Cambridge '26, was irreproachable. On call to his parishioners for religious consolation at any hour, he was also arch and sporting at children's church picnics, full of charm at meetings of the church mothers, and a lively, intelligent man of the world with the businessmen of the local vestry.

What dies in the ring is flesh; what has already perished in the stands is hope, mind and spirit. Among the fatally gored spectators: an icy arch-mom, the "chaste virginal mother of three"; her husband, a man who has transferred what little emotional-venture capital he once had into 3% matrimonial bonds; their grandson, a mobile Davy Crockett brat; a one-shot bohemian playwright who carries a pants pocket he once tore from Ty Cobb...
...Lyndon A. Peer studied 228 cases of cleft palate at Newark's Hospital of St. Barnabas, 40% among first-born children. Going back over the mothers' experiences during the critical weeks of pregnancy-when the two halves of the upper jaw normally fuse in the palatal arch-the doctors found that 23% had been ill or injured, and no less than 68% recalled emotional disturbances. Notable among these were a death in the family, loss of a job, marital incompatibility, worry because of a previous miscarriage; 19% had "morning sickness" with vomiting. Drs. Strean and Peer reason that...
