...contemplating a second afternoon daily, the existing one went calmly on its way as usual. Dorothy Schiff's liberal New York Post picked up some of the castoffs of the feature-fat W.J.T.: the Los Angeles Times-Washington Post News Service, Columnists Walter Lippmann, Evans and Novak, Art Buchwald-and even right-wing William Buckley Jr. "The New York Post," explained a disclaimer, "recognizing its altered role as the only afternoon newspaper in New York, believes that it is a part of its journalistic duty to convey some expression of viewpoints different from its own."

Getting into the spirit, Columnist Art Buchwald recorded several graffiti from Washington: "Governor Romney-Would you buy a new car from this man?" "Adam Clayton Powell uses Man-Tan." "George Wallace uses hair straightener." "Walter Lippmann-God is not dead. He is alive and appearing twice a week in the Washington Post...
Political Gagman Art Buchwald got the star billing, of course. But still, Bill Moyers, 32, won his share of the laughs when he rose to address the Women's National Press Club in Washington.

Lurleen Wallace could do Lurleen Plays Music to Segregate By, with Husband George conducting the Alabama State Police Symphony Orchestra. And Ronald Reagan might try Ronnie Reagan Swings at Berkeley. At any rate, as Dirksen himself has noted, the path from show biz to politics...
...York Post Publisher Dorothy Schiff, the Justice Department has demanded that some of the syndicated columnists who appeared in the now-defunct Herald Tribune be put on the New York market for competitive bidding. Which means that Mrs. Schiff will have the opportunity to try for Lippmann, Alsop, Buchwald, Evans and Novak. Which columnists she wants, she has not said. "I don't know how the hell she can outbid us unless we get a little complacent," says Conniff...
