...defrocked doctors-alcoholics, drug addicts, sexual perverts-or worse, bungling amateurs who don't hesitate to finish a sloppy job by tossing clients off tenement roofs or dismembering those who die. Equally sobering are the slum women who cannot afford even amateurs and do it themselves with hatpins, coat hangers and putrid soap solutions, which are often followed by lethal infection. Most desolate of all, perhaps, are those who cannot and dare not abort. Among the poor, who still know little about contraceptives, one result is ever more unwanted children, the key carriers of delinquency, divorce and crime...

The background rug, Persian...
...black Rolls-Royce eased to a halt outside the California State Capitol in Sacramento, and out stepped the legislature's guest of honor-dressed in a tattered coat, baggy pants with wide suspenders, and a long, lachrymose mouth curved like an inverted halfmoon. The legislature was honoring him with a special resolution offering "warm gratitude for the pleasure he has brought to the world." Replied Clown Emmett Kelly, 68: "I wish I could hug and kiss every woman here and shake hands with every man." Later, Kelly met his match in another seasoned performer, Governor Ronald Reagan, and, after...
