...They see taxes rising, crime proliferating, cities decaying and the cost of living outrunning their paychecks. Alienated from the Government, they elect to vote no. Certainly, even before the primaries, the residents of New Hampshire and Florida were found to be dissatisfied and hostile toward most candidates. The Wallace brand of populism offers a convenient outlet for all kinds of protest, whether its motives be worthy or base. On top of that, the sentiment against busing, fanned by the President, was enough to give many an urge to vote for Wallace. And, on a certain level, Wallace has a country...
...Government. In the top grades, at salary levels beginning at $28,000 a year, 1.6% of the jobs were held by women in 1966 v. 1.5% four years later. Midway in his present term, President Nixon promised to appoint more women, and to that end he created a brand-new position on the White House staff for a full-time recruiter of women.

Where Montgomery's act is informal and charismatic, Colwell's music is a tight, highly professional brand of blues virtuosity. Colwell repeatedly ripped off solos which can only be compared to Michael Bloomfield's on an inspired night. And like Montgomery's band, the Colwell group has acquired a repertoire of the very finest, rocking blues standards...
...cheery admission, Pat Nixon was "loving every minute of it." Indeed, with the President sequestered with his aides and Chinese officials much of the time, the First Lady's own brand of gracious, chatty kitchen diplomacy did much to humanize the formality of the Nixons' journey. Stiff and sequestered herself in years past, she seemed to blossom in her role of the not-so-innocent abroad. Unlike Jackie Kennedy, who tended to upstage J.F.K. in their forays abroad, Pat Nixon has proved herself a master of the very subtle art of being winning and winsome in the role...
