...West, it is the tiny (circ. 7,000), fearless Texas Observer. In 14 stormy fears, the Austin-based biweekly paper las tangled singlehanded with oil and gas interests, exposed statehouse scandals, often made life painful for politicians in the land of Lyndon. The Observer's founder is Ronnie Dugger, a prodding, provocative University of Texas graduate who came back from one year at Oxford with a passion to unmask corruption and hypocrisy. With a number of equally talented and brash companions, Dugger has made his influence felt far beyond the state borders. Admirers often call the Observer he political...
...victim of the Cardinal's punishment was the Rev. T. Joseph O'Donoghue, 37, assistant pastor of St. Fran cis de Sales Church in northeast Washington.

Before making his tender offer for the balance of Schenley stock, Riklis persuaded Rosenstiel to sell his own 18% controlling interest for $75 million in cash. Riklis also personally bought Rosenstiel's six-story Manhattan town house for $350,000. "Mr. Rosenstiel," said Riklis last week, "has indicated his desire to retire...
Sober Guests. The I.C.C.C. has proved as durable as its founder. Its membership now includes some 140 denominations in 73 countries and colonies from Bolivia to Lebanon. All are relatively small, fundamentalist groups that have also broken with mainstream Protestant churches on the issue of membership in the World Council. The biggest U.S. member is the General Association of Regular Baptist Churches, which has 1,300 congregations and 180,000 worshipers. Mclntire spreads his gospel through a weekly paper, the Christian Beacon (circ. 120,000), and a Monday-Friday radio program broadcast over 635 stations. Mclntire and his co-crusaders...
