These legislators are in the front ranks of a coast-to-coast uprising that has welded together an unusual alliance of right-wing civil libertarians and left-wing civil rightists, nut-nibbling food faddists and humanitarians groping for a way to relieve suffering. The crusade is the dark side of the mounting anti-Washington tide, a movement against Government interference in citizens' lives that involves states' rights, freedom of the individual and the fundamental subject of people's health. The question: Should state legislatures make an end run around federal bureaucrats and legalize...
...inauspicious start, the event Newsweek called "a rare combination of journalism, history, and live teledrama." There was David Frost speaking to millions of Americans coast-to-coast--or rather, his lips were moving, but no sound was coming out.

Biggs also commissioned new music, discovered old music, continually affirmed the importance of playing that old music on authentic instruments, and pioneered the use of the organ as an ensemble instrument...
...marked the fifty-year performing career of one of the world's undisputed organ masters. A Cambridge resident for most of that period, Biggs's most notable contribution to the organ and musical world had its roots in 1937 in Harvard's Busch-Reisinger Museum, where regular coast-to-coast CBS broadcasts--which reached millions of listeners--persuaded the musical public of the glories of authentic performance. In this regard, Biggs will be written in music history books in connection with the resurgent interest in the organ music of J.S. Bach, and in the use of authentic Baroque...
