...Baptist Mother Theresa. Supposedly a divorced father, Sonny behaves with such liberated understanding that it seems impossible any woman would depart from this well-built fount of warmth and wisdom. The character fails because he was created simply to be the 'wife' every working woman needs to take care of the kids. With Sonny around, the audience can't fault Field with being a neglectful...
...House press conference last week. He cited an alarming statistic: only ten years ago, a patient paid $533 for an average stay in a hospital; the average hospitalization now costs $1,634. An HEW study found that Americans spent less than 3% of the gross national product on health care at the turn of the century, now spend 9% and, at the current rate of increase, will be doling out 12%, or $1 trillion, annually by the end of the century. The cost of hospital care over the past ten years has risen more than twice as fast...

However, the regulation of an act which would affect only the individual involved, such as mountain climbing, is ridiculous. Mr. Yates neither needed nor wanted rescue parties to be sent out. They were sent out because he had violated a regulation established by the people through their elected representatives or the laws of nature...
