...long the non-junta will be content to play a caretaker role will depend not only on Costa e Silva's progress but also on the ambitions of its members. They vary considerably. Rademaker, 64, is a rigid right-winger who had helped lead the military's 1964 coup against left-leaning President Joāo Goulart, but has done little political maneuvering since. Technically, he is the senior man in the group, but he ranks an easy third in power and ambition. Souza, 63, is a hard-core rightist who is not likely to play a major...
What will the inquest, due to begin this week at Edgartown, do to make sense of that bizarre and tragic night? The answer will obviously depend upon the candor and character of those who attended the cookout, including Kennedy, and upon the acuity of the questions raised by District Attorney Edmund Dinis.

The Administration has said that further withdrawals will depend partly on a decrease in the level of fighting. Thus, Hanoi's decision to intensify the fighting may well prompt a slowdown in the U.S. reduction of forces...
Newspaper eras, like political eras, depend on the men who make them. And Harry Romanoff, 73, who retired in June as an editor of Chicago's American after more than 40 years, was quite a man. His reporters tell, for instance, the time in 1966 when Richard Speck was accused of murdering eight nurses (missing only Corazon Amurao, a Filipina), Romy assumed an accent and began phoning around town as the Philippine consul. For a follow-up story, Romy decided to dig up details of the accused man's marriage and troubled early life. He got the phone...
