...Eric Goldman resigned largely because he felt that Johnson did not really use him or even listen to him. If his concrete accomplishments seem slender-staging the White House Festival of the Arts, urging reform of the country's archaic draft machinery, counseling Johnson to give a respectful ear to the voices of national dissent-it may well be that Goldman was not permitted to do more...
...Ear for the Town. All sales will be from newsstands; there will be no home delivery. Which means that headlines will have to catch the eye of the rushing subway rider and home-bound commuter.

Based on the first half of The Private Ear-The Public Eye, a 1963 Broadway hit by Britain's Peter Shaffer, The Pad is laid out as a parable of friendship. Ted (James Farentino), who considers himself God's gift to the working girl, is a crude dude with a smile like a moonlit mackerel...
