Carol Bellamy? Less than a year ago, most New Yorkers would have been hard-pressed to identify her correctly as a state senator. Now that she has toppled incumbent City Council President Paul O'Dwyer-one of the most respected figures in local politics-the fresh-faced, strong-voiced Brooklynite has become the city's newest Cinderella...

...never win--well, they say the game is mostly in the playing anyway. New York State is a case in point. For years the state has elected Senators named Javits and Buckley and Kennedy and Moynihan; for years it has rejected two men named Abe Hirschfeld and Paul O'Dwyer. Yet neither has thrown in his cards. Hirschfeld, a millionaire garage contractor, has already spend enough money to buy the Capitol dome in his biennial attempts to win a seat of his own. And O'Dwyer, a die-hard politico, has maneuvered his way through an entire dormitory of strange...
