Indiana's freshman Democratic Representative Randall S. Harmon, 55, shrugged off all the bother as mere pother. Sure, he admitted, he was drawing $100 a month from the Government for renting himself his own front porch back home in Muncie (monthly mortgage payments for the whole house: $54.40), which he had converted into an office. Moreover, his office was being run by his wife, and she was getting a secretarial salary of $4,424.16 a year from the U.S. "So what?" cried Congressman Harmon last week. "It's nobody's business."

From SAC's Thule Air Base in Greenland, cover planes flew across the earth's top to circle Ice Skate and keep in touch lest the camp homer beacon fail. At Harmon A.F.B. in Newfoundland, SAC put on standby two crack C-123J crews who were familiar with ice landings. This time, instead of landing on a 10,000-ft.-to-20,000-ft airstrip, a single rescue plane had to make a dark-of-night touchdown on a Band-Aid-sized...
...high school days, Thach was a fine athlete, only a fair student; happily, his football coach was his math teacher, and his track coach was the physics instructor. He was in his third year at Fordyce High when his brother, James Harmon Thach Jr., was admitted to Annapolis. Says Submarine Hunter Thach, with a sense of wonder: "I remember how surprised I was when I first thought about the seas and realized I had never even given them a thought before. I knew so little I was under the impression that if you took a handful of ocean water...
