Indians smolder when the white operators of trading posts sell their Indian-crafted goods to tourists at 400% markups. They resent the white sportsmen who gun down caribou from airplanes, while their own hunting for lifesaving game is restricted by white laws. They become furious at the white shopkeepers' use of Indian religious symbols and bad portraits of Indian chiefs. Don Wilkerson, the Cherokee-Creek director of the Phoenix Indian Center, claims that a bar in Scottsdale, Ariz., has a huge picture of a great Indian chief on its roof as an advertising gimmick. "The Jewish people would not permit...

Clark, reportedly furious, sounded moderate to the end. "No comment, gentlemen," he told reporters later. "I'm a man of the law and I follow the law." Kunstler had some reason to be glad as well as sad. At week's end the defense called their 113th and last witness.

...again charged I.O.S. with illegally selling unregistered stock in the U.S. In September, the commission accused I.O.S. of further technical hanky-panky involving fee splitting. The latest charges came just before I.O.S. successfully floated a $110 million public offering of common stock (TIME, Oct. 3), and they made Cornfeld furious. "Government agencies are full of halfwits and political appointees who can't get a decent job elsewhere," he told TIME Correspondent Bob Ball.

...repeatedly walking off the edge of a table. Too little to be abandoned once more to the hazards of the woods, he stayed, ate eagerly and soon learned to fly and hunt. He also solved the family cat and dog problem. Chirring fiercely, he fixed them with a furious yellow stare and threw a hex on them. "The animal which looks back at you with two eyes at once," maintains Service, "tends to stand high in the local food chain, i.e., not one of nature's victims...
