Finally a cover story on the Portuguese situation [Aug. 11]. And what a cover it is. The gentleman on the right (Costa Gomes) could pass for Frankenstein's twin brother; the one in the center (Gonçalves) looks like he's ready to bite someone on the neck, and the one on the left (Carvalho) really looks like he's on the left...
...exciting aspect of Mrs. Ford's comments on abortion and "having affairs" [Aug. 25] is not so much the substance of them, as it is the freedom which she and her family feel to express their diversity of views on the topics.

Standing alone in a bayside park, it looks like a beached iceberg-an immense, rugged structure clad in snowy white marble. On one side, the building rides gently over some rocky ledges (which in the U.S. would probably have been dynamited away); on another, it retreats in scalloped curves from nearby trees...
