...even greater problem is health. Degeneration and disease among hotel children is beyond imagination. There is, today, a near crisis involving upper respiratory infections, and chicken pox is spreading rapidly. There has been a large number of middle-ear infections, as well as gastrointestinal infections. Lead poisoning, caused by hotel children eating the peeling paint from the walls, is also a severe hazard...
...content with producing commercials and 70% of all the station identifications that racket through the middle ear of Middle America, P. & T. is now seeping into the semiconsciousness of the whole world. The BBC's pop network is overrun with Pepper & Tanner jingles ("It's what's happening . . . Radio One"). So is station Rediffusion Singapore.

If carried out, it would be the first FDA prescription under the Child Protection and Toy Safety...
...other Democrats were running. He promised "free everything for everybody." As for the marijuana and LSD problem, he said, "I would utilize laws governing fraud, truth in packaging and price fixing to ensure quality goods at reasonable prices." Such talk-and Kimball's hairy, earring-in-the-left-ear getup-so scared the good folk of Douglas County that nearly double the usual number of off-year election voters turned out to defeat him, 14,725 to 2,089. But they overlooked another hippie candidate, Phillip Hill, 22, who ran so quietly for justice of the peace that...
