...Angeles the campaign story was the same: 7,000 full-throated Californians filled the Los Angeles Shrine Auditorium while another 2,000 gathered outside. Jack Kennedy was visibly weary, with deep circles under his eyes and an ominous hoarseness creeping into his voice, but he cracked out a cogent speech that was largely off the cuff...
...that would provide a key for translating Wilson's ultra-Graham into good Wilsonian English. Last week in Washington, anachronistic Graham Expert Clifford Gehman, 84, had all but cracked the Wilsonian cipher after more than a year's effort. As proof of his success, Gehman displayed a cogent translation of Wilson's acceptance speech for the 1912 presidential nomination.

Last fall the America-Israel Cultural Foundation helped arrange a meeting between Rose and Bezalel's boyish, brilliant director, Karl Katz. Katz agreed that the hunger was there, and gave one cogent reason: there is hardly any modern art displayed in the Middle East.

...angry old field marshal added darkly that the tunnel would end "the inviolability of our island against the footsteps of an invader." To placate such critics, tunnel planners have included a dip at either end which could be flooded quickly to thwart invaders, pumped out later. The only cogent argument against construction of a tunnel, as the Times once commented, is that it would end the debate as to whether it ever was a good plan, "thus depriving posterity of an intellectual exercise from which successive generations have derived a great deal of good clean...
