...choice of a chancellor will be up to Adenauer's ruling Christian Democratic party if Adenauer is elected president, and there was little doubt of Adenauer's election. Adenauer will still be at the helm when crucial East-West meetings take place this spring and summer...
...three leading candidates for the outfield are Mo Balboni, Charlie Ravenel, and Doug Brown; but Shepard admitted that the situation there is still far from clear. This left only pitching, the most uncertain part of the pre-season prognosis--"and the most crucial," as Shepard said with some emphasis.

If the protectionists win, the "national security" dodge will create many new problems for all free enterprise-as the quotas on oil imports show. The U.S. Government warned that it will police oil prices; if prices rise beyond levels set by OCDM, the U.S. will let in more imports. Further victories by the protectionists could well bring price controls on many another industry and take the U.S. a long step toward peacetime price controls for the whole economy...
