Arizona Deputy Sheriff Walt Coogan (Clint Eastwood) is a steely-eyed loner who hunts down criminals as a kind of blood sport. His boss sends him to Manhattan to extradite a prisoner named Ringerman (Don Stroud), who is in Bellevue recovering from an acid trip.

For the past year, three institutions have been principally responsible for formulating Viet Nam policy: the Tuesday Lunch Group that Abrams sat in on last week; the Thursday Group, including C.I.A.

Schrafft's, a 55-restaurant chain with outlets in eight Eastern states from Massachusetts to Florida, is operated by the Frank G. Shattuck Co., which merged with St. Louis-based Pet Inc. earlier this year. With Pet's backing, the chain's boss, Frank Shattuck II, has been trying to sell Schrafft's to a broader clientele. To that end, for example, some of the New York City outlets are currently being remodeled to make their liquor-dispensing bars just as conspicuous as the familiar soda fountains. Such changes are aimed mainly...
