...There was quite a bit of Dirksen hyperbole in that, and Judy Agnew was quick to set the record straight. "The most expensive gown I own is my inaugural ball gown," the Second Lady protested. "That cost under $500, and I don't expect to pay that much again for a long time. I wear my clothes over and over again...
Mindful of the Mets' conspicuous weaknesses, Hodges stressed basics?pick-offs, cutoffs, double plays?until the players had them down pat.

Those who expect the July low to stand as the bottom of the 1969 market predict that stock prices will move sideways for a long time until there are solid indications that inflation is being brought under control.
