The Judiciary Committee has learned that the judge, who sat on a 1967 case involving the Brunswick Corp., bought stock now valued at $18,000 between the time of the argument and the release of the decision in favor of the company. His friends see nothing wrong with his purchase and point out that he was only one of 48 who bought Brunswick shares from the same broker at the time.

Drugs have become so painful an issue between parents and their children that when Mr. and Mrs. Jones discover that a child of theirs is turned-on or freaked-out, they may find themselves, dazed and uncomprehending, turning him over to the police. Pop drugs hardly portend anything as drastic as a new and debauched American spirit, as some alarmists believe.

The mounting research on drugs permits some new perspectives...
