...that Wisconsin's voters could see of the political world, there were only two Democrats who mattered. For six weeks Minnesota's Hubert Humphrey and Massachusetts' John Kennedy had been waging the battle of their political lives from Superior to Fond du Lac. Kennedy's 70-year-old mother Rose, flanked by a bevy of daughters, left no Kaffeeklatsch unpercolated; Muriel Humphrey passed out thousands of copies of her celebrated recipe for beef soup. Brother Ted Kennedy gamely made the first ski jump of his career for the cause, and Brother Bob, erstwhile counsel...

The terrorists are killed in an ambush, and the arms dump is lost. But a thoughtful Indian plantation clerk deduces that it must exist, and to satisfy his curiosity begins to search for it. Months later the clerk finds the weapons, still unrusted, and he feels that it would be a pity to turn...
...mail-answering form full of prefab messages such as "Congratulations," "Get well soon," "Let's both forget it," and "You paid me the highest compliment a woman ever paid a man, but I am not worthy of your love." That last item is frequently checked, for Hoffman is fond of women, including girls of all wages. His vision being what it is, he is not choosy. A Hollywood friend says: "If Irving ever regained his eyesight and saw some of those girls, he'd commit suicide...
