...other item was the quiet resignation of Maurice Mann, chief economist in the Office of Management and Budget, known for his doubts about the Administration's efforts to control inflation. There is evidence that the President himself has now grown more concerned about the economic future. Last week he met with Kennedy, Council of Economic Advisers Chairman Paul McCracken, Commerce Secretary Maurice Stans and Chairman Arthur Burns of the Federal Reserve Board...
...television, cigarette makers are blowing a bundle to introduceand heavily promotenew brands. In recent weeks, R.J. Reynolds Tobacco has brought out Vantage, American Brands has introduced Maryland 100s, and Philip Morris has put on the market wintergreen-flavored New Leaf. The most unusual new item is Brown & Williamson's Laredo, which is a $2 kit that includes tobacco, paper, filters and a roll-your-own machine. It is fast finding favor among weekend pot smokers...
THIS grotesque parody of the U.S. legislative process is unfortunately all too real. When Congress reconvenes this week, the first major item of business in the House will be a vote on the most restrictive piece of trade legislation since the disastrous Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act of 1930.

Bobby was back shortly, and so was mob rule. He didn't exactly calm the audience when he returned and played the old "throw the crowd your clothes" trick. Off came his white handkerchief-tie, and he tossed it out to the masses. The absence of this item, of course, provided the fans an extra bonus: Bobby's shirt came undone a bit at the top, and Bobby's chest peeked out at the screaming teenies. It wasn't exactly Jim Morrison masturbating for a Florida audience, but it kept these kids happy, to say the least. It would make...
