...Ronald Reagan right in asserting that the Soviets now enjoy nuclear "superiority" over the U.S.? The debate over who is ahead in the arms race has been raging for years in Washington, and surely in Moscow as well, and by its nature seems endless. Key questions, like the American capacity to retaliate against a massive Soviet missile strike, could be answered definitively only by a war that might destroy the world. But if it cannot be settled, the argument cannot be stilled either, and the President's statement last week raised the issue to a new pitch...
WHETHER AMERICANS SHOULD have been in Vietnam and other Asian countries is a question that has stirred seemingly endless controversy. The Podhoretz's and the McGovern's will probably be arguing in their graves about the propriety and morality of sending U.S. troops to those far-off parts of the world...
...votes were tallied last Thursday, it became clear that neither the unabashed pork barreling nor the charge of carpetbagging had succeeded. Roy Jenkins was Hillhead's man.

For women, this meant extravagant and restrictive couture. Armani sensed that what was needed in clothes was something that looked "a little used, not absolutely perfect...
...baseball has gone back to baseball. Last season was interrupted for 50 games by shrill lawyers and labor leaders, and the grace note of laughter never quite returned. Some wondered if it ever would. But the talk this spring is once again of hopeful rookies and aging veterans, an endless line streaming in and straggling out. Born hitters who can do it all and hurt you in a lot of ways. Stylish lefthanders who throw aspirin tablets and wear CAN'T MISS tags if they stay out of the hitters' wheelhouses. Joy is back in Mudville...
