Mansfield of Montana proposed that the Democrats arm themselves with four assistant whips to aid Louisiana's Russell Long, the Democratic whip.

...conversation: sex (unspoken) pervades the atmosphere. Among other matters, this raises the question of whether there is such a thing as a discernible homosexual type.

Husserl's bafflingly difficult approach influenced such modern existentialist philosophers as Martin Heidegger and Jean-Paul Sartre...

Lindsay uncovers an eternal spring of fresh water by striking his rod against the Empire State Building. Ronald Reagan engages California Governor Edmund G. (Pat) Brown in a series of debates. Reagan, clasping his shawl tight to his shoulders, persists in calling Brown "Senator Douglas" and talking about his boyhood in Illinois...
