...news, Lord. For the sins of the 6:30 news," wails Mary's friend Loretta Haggers, who happened to be out of the room at the crucial moment, hunting for the reverend's rubber duck. Meanwhile, Loretta's oversexed husband Charlie-shot in the groin in a tussle with Jimmy Joe's dad, Merle Jeeter-prepares stoically for television's first testicle transplant. As for good ole Merle, he becomes a "born-again" politician. Also tripping into view will be a Miss Tippytoes, a glamorous CB radio freak who Mary thinks has a handle...
...beer-sotted youths who hurled jeers, curses and debris. Only 300 policemen were on hand, half as many as were needed to keep the marchers and the mob apart. One cop was felled when a 3-lb. chunk of concrete hit his head, and another was struck in the groin by a missile; 16 policemen and 16 civilians were injured.

After all, Congress set up the corporation...
...continue fighting Ford. He urged city residents to rally soon, perhaps in Times Square or Central Park, in an "Operation Alive and Kicking." Said he: "We're going to be seen and heard. That's the way New York normally responds when it gets kicked in the groin." But the time for shouting and demonstrating was long past. Rohatyn summed up the situation more accurately with gallows humor: "I feel like somebody who tries to check into a hospital and keeps getting referred to the cemetery." Facing tougher times ahead, New York has only one hope: that...
