...voter in primaries, but presidential and vice presidential candidates are exempt from the primary limitation. In the next presidential election, therefore, the candidates will each be permitted to spend $5.1 million for radio and TV air time. In 1968, Nixon spent $12.7 million and Hubert Humphrey $6.1 million...
...producers of this masterpiece have not been good enough to include the music, with the exception of a brief snatch of the "Liszt" Grubelei, which they compare to a cadenza from the third Liebestraum. Humphrey Searle comments on the comparison that Mrs. Brown's product is so much like Liszt's that it must be authentic. And so it is.

No one doubts that, as a freshman Senator, Humphrey will be an available-but hardly compelling-contender. Muskie is easily the current favorite. Last week he flew to Illinois, back to Washington, and out again to California in quest of money and votes for fellow Democrats and exposure for himself. He still suffers from an aura of passivity. A taunt from Eugene McCarthy last week summed it up: "If Muskie...
