...growing sense of disquiet in the nation over Nixon's above-the-battle posture. Moreover, the Vice President's emphasis on the old theme that the Democrats bring prosperity and the Republicans take it away may by paying off; bread and butter is still a tasty dish. Humphrey could find little consolation, however, in the 1948 Truman victory he is trying to emulate. According to a Gallup poll released this week, Humphrey trails Nixon by 15 points, 43 to 28. At roughly the same stage in 1948, a Roper poll showed Truman only 13 points behind the aloof...
Their rough but unique closeup of Venus stems from 17 radar probes with NASA's 210-ft. dish antenna at Goldstone, Calif., last summer. At that time Venus was only 26 million miles from the earth. Since then, the scientists have been "drawing" a map by feeding their electronic findings into a computer. The result shows three blotches of extremely rough terrain, which Goldstein presumes are mountains, moonlike craters or fields of boulders...
While their map is the clearest view yet of Venus, the Caltech researchers are not the only radar astronomers mapping that planet. Similar surveying is being carried out by Cornell scientists using the 1,000-ft. dish telescope at Arecibo, Puerto Rico, and by MIT astronomers at two sites in Massachusetts. In March, Venus will again approach Earth. By boosting their radar signal to 450,000 watts, Caltech's electronic cartographers expect to make even more detailed maps...
...offender "would use a knife to stab or fists to beat his victim to death." But Wolfgang has since modified that view. As Detroit Police Commissioner Ray Girardin puts it: "When people have guns, they use them. A wife gets mad at her husband, and instead of throwing a dish she grabs the gun and kills him." Agrees Psychiatrist Robert Coles: "Every psychiatrist has treated patients who were thankful that guns were not around at one time or another in their lives...
...family. And they feed them accordingly. Today, even table scraps are not good enough-which means that the nation's 3,000 dog-and cat-food makers and marketers contemplate 1968 sales of over $900 million, up $300 million since 1965. At that price, the doggy dish runs all the way from chicken croquettes to chunks of pure beef...
