...Administration policy but a forceful plea for one came from Robert McKinney, 45, able editor and publisher of the daily Santa Fe New Mexican (circ. 11,000).

She is like the heroine of an old movie serial, with the important difference that where the movie heroine was chained fully clothed to the tracks to be torn asunder by the Santa Fe express, Caroline is generally denuded by pursuers intent on joining her in union specific. As she herself sportingly admits at a critical moment (she is hanging almost naked from a rafter in a subzero temperature): "There is something better to do with . . . women than to kill them...
