...show what Hamilton County Republicans really think of Charles P. Taft." To show what he really thought of the organization and presumably to protect his prestige in future elections, seven-term Councilman and Mayor (1955-57) Taft mailed 3,000 vote-seeking letters to city Republicans. Inevitably, the feud spread beyond Cincinnati. Anti-organization Republicans have taken up pens, are boosting Charlie and the Taft name by mail in Cleveland, Akron, Youngstown and other big vote centers. They do not expect to win the nomination, but a big Taft vote could hurt O'Neill's prestige...
...take of sewerage, highway problems and business licensing laws, and frequently the meetings are broadcast to overflow crowds in the corridors. Three TV stations film every byplay, five radio stations record every word of what Wichita fans call "the Tuesday night fights."

But Perlstein soon found himself hurt by his own success. Hit hard by the steadily flattening beer...

For the Pakistanis it was bad enough that Britain's Prime Minister Harold Macmillan and U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Henry Cabot Lodge had toured India and returned to their countries saying kind words about India's problems. But when the U.S. announced last month that it would lend India a whopping $225 million for its second five-year development program, Pakistan's Prime Minister Malik...
...Good Night." NBC stoutly denied any feud on the show, but last week the feuding drowned out the denials. "I'll tell you why we cut her," Paar erupted before one show. "Does one say 'Your fly's open' on the air? Or do you take out a falsy before the camera? No other person has ever confronted me with such embarrassment or provocation.
