Much as he admires his wife, Edwards had other things in mind when he made his surprising selection to fill the Senate post occupied for nearly 36 years by Allen Ellender, who died two weeks ago. Too many other Louisianans coveted the job, and it was politically perilous to choose among them. Beyond that, three of Edwards' top financial backers sought the post-not to mention his two brothers. Elaine was the only...
...elevation, however, is only temporary. In November, an election will be held to fill the seat. Elaine (so everybody anticipates) will then resign and return home.

Stevens De-Clerque, the operation will rely mainly on employee groups contracted by their companies. First, the candidate must fill out a 378-item questionnaire on his own and his family's medical histories. That chore over, things are made as easy as possible for him. His questionnaire is fed into a computer. If the electronic brain finds inadequate or conflicting answers, it demands: "More data!" The computer prescribes the test schedule for each individual patient, based...
