...loom large. On ideology, Reagan and Connally have both staked out similar conservative positions. Reagan may be handicapped most by having lost last time. Connally's biggest liability remains the fact that he was once a Democrat and was once close to Nixon. In addition, although he was found innocent in 1975 of accepting $10,000 in bribes from dairymen, there was little doubt that he had helped them get higher price supports in the hope, if not a pledge, that they would support Nixon...

But when the lone agent assigned to drive Fülle to jail reached the prison and got out of the car the prisoner, who unaccountably had not been manacled, leaped...
...deal had been thrashed out in a series of secret meetings last spring between Gyllenhammar and Norwegian Premier Odvar Nordli. But when Volvo shareholders found out about it, they protested that the terms were not nearly sweet enough, and a growing number threatened to vote no at this week's annual meeting. Late last week, faced with enough proxy votes to block the sale, Volvo's board of directors abandoned the effort to win approval of Gyllenhammar's plan.
