Bernice Buresh, Dayton Duncan, Godfrey Hodgson and Phillip van Niekerk will conduct research at the center, and at least two will teach short courses in their fields of expertise...
...Chicago management consultant. San Francisco, he declared, "was the last bastion of the liberal wall to fall." Not quite. Detroit, Milwaukee, Portland, Sacramento and San Antonio, at least, still allow Dignity to meet in church, though Rome's pressure on them is sure to grow.

This, admittedly, was a paltry triumph for the nominee of a major party in September, but it conveys the dire mood that had prevailed in the Dukakis camp and the elation over the shifts that were under way. "This is not brain surgery," said Francis O'Brien, a Sasso recruit to the campaign. "Republicans have...
