...NIXON. A bewildering array of specific questions for the President is suggested in each of Dean's charges and interpretations of conversations between them. So far, the President's press spokesmen have responded only by saying thai Nixon will stand behind his May 22 statement. That consisted of making blanket denials rather than dealing with specific meetings and events. Nixon, for example, claimed that he had had no knowledge of the White House-ordered burglary of Daniel Ellsberg's psychiatrist's office until he made an investigation late in March of 1973.

...into the stretch, Jockey Ron Turcotte did not bother to go to the whip as Secretariat poured it on. When he crossed the finish line, he had won by an incredible 31 lengths, the largest winning margin in the history of the Belmont.

Hundreds of observers around the world are preparing to examine the comet in many frequencies of light -from ultraviolet to infrared. Harvard's A. Edward Lilley even hopes to detect, for the first time, microwave emissions from a comet. Above the earth's obscuring blanket of air unmanned satellites-perhaps even Skylab's sophisticated observatory-may make the most fruitful observations of all. All the observations will be aimed at determining the structure of the comet and its origin-probably beyond the planet Pluto, where billions of comet-like objects are believed to be orbiting as remnants...

They became familiar spectacles in Manhattan's galleries and museums during the '60s. Then, suffering from the blanket rejection of Pop art (with which it was vaguely and in fact wrongly connected), her work seemed to drop out of sight. As can be seen in her current show, which will travel from New York to Paris and Dusseldorf, her preoccupations remained constant and her sculptures became stronger than before...
