Student Deferment. Detroit's James Lafferty, 31, claims that any good lawyer can block a client's induction for at least two years. His firm of Lafferty, Reosti, Jabara, Papakhian, James & Stickgold has already handled 700 draft cases, although it is less than a year old. Milwaukee Draft Lawyer Harry Peck, 34, says: "A person who follows my advice and works hard on developing his case is probably going to stay out of the Army." Los Angeles Attorney William Smith, 36, who is an ex-Air Force captain, claims that if a boy and his parents can afford...
...Resentment is succeeded in turn by bargaining-a campaign, often undetectable, to somehow stay execution of sentence. A difficult patient may abruptly turn cooperative; the reward he seeks for good behavior is an extension of life. The author cites the poignant case of an opera singer, her face consumed by a fatal malignancy, who begged for a chance to sing one last time; thus, death would have to wait...
According to a book published this week, The Selling of the President 1968 (Trident Press; $5.95), it was simply a case of good advertising.

Others are based on female forms: the hamburgers, light switches, the soft version of Chrysler's 1935 Airflow. But every good Freudian knows all that without having to prowl within a sculptor's imagination. On the other hand, who could anticipate Oldenburg's explanation of his sculpture Raisin Bread, Sliced? "It was conceived as a sort of Parthenon and was also suggested by a picture I saw of Paris' Madeleine Church turning into a loaf of bread. The piece...
...they were things that attain monumentality through constant use: a toilet float that rises and falls with the tide on the Thames River in London, a gigantic pair of scissors to replace the Washington Monument in Washington, D.C., a huge windshield wiper for Grant Park in Chicago, a melting Good Humor bar to replace the Pan Am Building in New York. Nor are all the monuments big. The most poignant, in fact, is the smallest-a fallen hat for "a London street" to commemorate Adlai Stevenson...
