...teach history by the better starting pay of a $25-a-week reporting job on the Washington Post. (Said the Post in an editorial last week: "Mr. Donovan... is a man of such enormous professional talent and personal distinction that whatever he does for the Carter presidency is bound to be a plus.") Donovan covered the State Department, Capitol Hill and the White House before serving as an intelligence officer in the U.S. Navy during World War II. He began his 34-year career at Time as a writer for FORTUNE, and, at 38, he became its managing editor. TIME...
...Martin Feldstein, 40, his colleagues predict, is some day bound to reach the pinnacle of their profession: chairman of the President's Council of Economic Advisers.

That sense of crisis is ebbing rapidly, and gasoline lines are shortening drastically as a result of Saudi Arabia's decision to increase crude production. The less the feeling of urgency, the greater the opportunity for quarreling special interest groups to pick the program apart...
...shops that line the streets surrounding Wrigley have proven prime targets for the four-bag shots that regularly pass the low wire fences behind the bleachers. There's no Fenway Green Monster to grab well-tagged liners, and the neighborhood kids make a regular habit of shagging street-bound balls off the bats of major league sluggers: souvenirs that come even without the cost of admission...
