...letters that were introduced into evidence typed by Priscilla Hiss during the 1930s. We have Mr. Hiss' four hand-written notes--one of which I've shown was actually quoted in full by Chambers in a 1938 article that he wrote shortly after defecting. Where did he get these handwritten memos from? And then, of course, we have the famous microfilm Pumpkin Papers...
Over his objections, his court-appointed lawyers filed an appeal. Gilmore tried to dismiss them. He sent the Utah Supreme Court a handwritten note asking to be allowed to "die with dignity." Said he: "Don't the people of Utah have the courage of their conviction?" When the justices nonetheless voted to stay his execution, Gilmore last week appeared before them in shackles and said calmly: "I was given a fair trial. The sentence was proper. I'm willing to accept it like a man and wish it to be carried out without delay." A few hours later...
...onto pages of a loose-leaf notebook. "I don't learn just by reading, so I rewrite everything and get it into my head," he reports. Similarly in the three weeks before E-day, NBC's John Chancellor covered four 12-in. by 17-in. cards with handwritten summaries of electoral and demographic facts. Chancellor's scribblings were all color-coded and organized into 51 tiny squares, one for each state and the District of Columbia.

...nerve center of Carter's campaign is a small, windowless chamber on the 24th floor of downtown Atlanta's Colony Square office building. The door, unmarked except for a taped-up piece of white paper bearing the handwritten designation 22-A, is always kept locked. Only six persons have the key. Known as "the situation room," it resembles a combat-ready headquarters. The beige walls are decorated with charts, graphs and maps that reflect Carter's strategy. The barnstorming schedules for the candidate, his wife Rosalynn and their three sons and wives, plus Mondale and his wife, are traced...
Apart from the suspension, the Pope has treated Lefebvre with considerable restraint, even tenderness. In a poignant note in French, handwritten in Rome two weeks before the Lille Mass, the Pontiff addressed the erring bishop as "our venerated brother," urged him to reconsider "the insupportable irregularity of your present position" and "break the illogical bonds which make you alien and hostile to the church." The letter apparently affected the intransigent archbishop very little. Last week in Lille he told reporters that he did not feel at all isolated. "I am with 20 centuries of the church," he declared confidently...
