...sports-minded, Republican Wilmer ("Vinegar Bend") Mizell, 38, onetime pitcher for the St. Louis Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Pirates, won in North Carolina over Democrat Smith Bagley. Also certain to be heard from in the new House is Long Island's ultraliberal Democrat Allard K. Lowenstein, 39, a leader in the effort to land the Democratic presidential nomination for McCarthy...
...trial; under Tanzanian law, the verdict is rendered by two assessors before it is either accepted or rejected by the presiding judge. Assessors are supposed to be familiar with the customs of the accused's tribe, and Kinsey had to settle for one U.S. citizen, Soil Conservationist Gail Bagley of Elsberry, Mo.

Bagley also has some high-powered Coward, most notably an item called Carrie Was a Careful Girl, which is, of all things, a ballad about contraceptives...
...with superbly detailed tessellations of anecdote. An itchy slut of a woman up on the third floor sings Don't Sit Under the Apple Tree with her soldier friends and kicks them all out just before her husband gets back from his war-worker job at midnight. Mrs. Bagley from the other side of the garbage court passes the word that Hitler was "a fairy-honest. I hear he's a morphydike." Everyone speculates about...
