Clinton's team hasn't been sure-footed throughout the case either. Washington superlawyer Robert Bennett, for instance, ran afoul of the President's backers in the feminist community when he threatened to drag Jones' sexual history into court. And some of his critics point out that he was brought in to settle the case, not try it. If a deal isn't struck soon, Jones may not be the only one looking for a new attorney...
Clinton lawyer Bob Bennett, constrained by politics from delving into PAULA JONES' sexual history as he prepares for a possible trial in her harassment suit, intends to probe what he asserts was Jones' real motive for coming forward: money. To that end, a crucial witness could be CARRIE FERRARO, who rented Paula and Steve Jones a Glendale, Calif., house in May 1993. Ferraro told TIME that almost from the start, the couple complained of being broke. They were frequently late paying the $900 monthly rent, she says, and Paula often asked to borrow money. The chatty Paula, she claims, never...
...Chicago, Daley has taken on his city's most intractable problem: a $3 billion school system that former U.S. Education Secretary William Bennett once called the worst in the nation.

The political opposites are teaming up to take the helm of the Partnership, the organization that brought us those eggy "This is your brain on drugs" commercials. They'll be seeking $350 million from Congress and private sources to finance another Partnership anti-drug media blitz. That fits nicely with the White House's 1998 anti-drug strategy, which, coincidentally, also calls for a $350 million anti-drug advertising campaign...
...make every article of use, convenience or necessity among our people." By the time the covered wagons and handcarts had concluded their westward roll, geographic isolation had reinforced social exclusion: the Mormons' camp on the Great Salt Lake was 800 miles from the nearest settlement. Says Senator Bob Bennett, whose grandfather was a President: "In Young's day the church was the only source of accumulated capital in the territory. If anything was built, it had to be built by the church because no one else had any money...
