...South Pacific, Tom Hepworth, who runs a trading post, read in Modern Living of a worldwide vacation-home-exchange service based in Connecticut. He wrote the agency for help in finding someone in New Zealand who would trade homes so he could take his eight-year-old daughter there for open-heart surgery at Auckland's famed Greenlane Hospital. The agency went to work and ultimately our Auckland stringer, Bob Gilmore, joined in. The Hepworths found a place in Auckland. ¶When we did our Gemini rendezvous cover at the end of 1965, NASA's Director of Flight...
...York's flower people, a tattooed drifter full of love and laughter who turned on to every stimulant-from simple, undrugged fun to crystallized "speed" (methedrine, a high-powered amphetamine), which he occasionally sold for profit. Hippies called him "Groovy." Linda Rae Fitzpatrick, 18, was the daughter of a Greenwich, Conn., spice merchant, a blonde and dreamy-eyed dropout from Maryland's exclusive Oldfields School. Alienated by whatever obscure forces from her parents-both of whom had previously been divorced -she had traded the security of exurbia for the turned-on squalor of hippie life in the East...

Last March after his liaison with Jeannette became public knowledge, Sanchez announced that he would seek freedom to marry her, at the same time said he would not run for re-election when his term expires next year...
...adolescent-ruthless, secretive and vulnerable; few better studies have been written of his condition. He wrestles with sacred and profane loves, one represented by Imogen, a local beauty and culture snob who is headed for a cathedral marriage, and the other by Evie, the town crier's pretty daughter, a "secular" sexpot with eyes like black plums. For Oliver, a chapel-going apothecary's son, marriage is unthinkable with either, even when he gets Evie pregnant (or so she lets him think). It sounds like an un-American tragedy; yet Golding's story is no glum Dreiserian...
