...Nixon forces as part of an undercover dirty-tricks campaign against Democratic presidential contenders in 1972. The tireless tracking down of Segretti brought the reporters confirmation of his underhanded activities, his apparently unlimited travel funds and his tie to several old University of Southern California friends, among them Dwight Chapin, who had by then become President Nixon's appointments secretary...
...Ervin's committee hearings before the television cameras. On the basis of his performance last week, Dean passed his first major test as a witness under fire in a courtroom. He is expected to testify this month at the perjury trial of Dwight Chapin, the former appointments secretary for the President, and at the September trial of the seven former Nixon aides, including Mitchell, charged with covering up the Watergate burglary.

After recently accepting the resignation of Music Director Rafael Kubelik and trimming the length of future seasons, Chapin got some assistance last week on his worst problem: a multimillion-dollar operating deficit. The National Endowment for the Arts came through with a lifesaving transfusion of $1 million for general support, which must be matched by private contributions. This is the first time that the Met, the premier American grand opera house, has received a sizable federal grant, though public subsidies are routine...
