...After he cooled off, the aide explained in a memo that Rose had been out when the staff called and that she had been sent a videotape of the interview. Kennedy scrawled an apology of sorts: "I'll eat my hat?the next time Bill Buckley writes a good column about...
Readers were similarly bereft. Cross word-puzzle skills grew rusty, the spring's first cuckoo went unrecorded, and almost no one knew the name of the new captain of fives at Eton. The Times's famous letters-to-the-editor column was missed perhaps most of all.

Presentations range from perfunctory (Playgirl devotes a mere 300 words in its editor's column) to intensely personal (writes Essence's editor in chief Marcia Ann Gillespie: "I did not stand up for my rights as a black person in America to be told that I have to sit down because I'm a woman"). Ladies' Home Journal has the most glamorous contributor in Senator Edward Kennedy. Also the most platitudinous: "[The ERA] will give meaning...
