...worried Lungren called in Dr. Wiley F. Barker, an expert in venous-systems diseases and professor of surgery at U.C.L.A., and Dr. Eldon B. Hickman, deputy chief of surgery at Memorial. After consultation and another venogram of their patient, the medicalmen agreed that immediate surgery was essential to keep the clots from breaking off and moving upward to Nixon's heart and lungs.

Hunt may also...
...find themselves at hard labor on the dread Dry Tortugas. Ford's pardon of Nixon may stem from similar motives of compassion, but it is hardly the same sort of pardon. The Watergate parallel, if there is one, might be clemency for such men as Eugenio Martinez and Bernard Barker, the "little men" who were tried and convicted while Nixon goes free...
