...chest with a .25-cal. weapon-lying beneath the underbrush in a section of Central Park called the Ramble. Gallagher had not been robbed; he had no criminal record; he had no access to any classified nuclear information, police said. At week's end police could offer no hint to the killer's identity or his motive. But they reminded New Yorkers again that the Ramble, a sunny sanctuary for birds and bird watchers like Charles Gallagher during the day, had long been a junglelike hideout for muggers, holdup men and perverts after dark...

Some United States proponents of MLF hint that sharing Polaris submarines will give America's European allies the illusion of nuclear participation while preserving actual American control. The more realistic supporters, however, see that European participation must be more concrete if the U.S. is to convince its allies to shoulder the greater financial burden that their acceptance of MLF would entail...
