Without question, Cox is a good bit more liberal than his intended. "She is slightly to the right of Ivan the Terrible," says one Republican campaign worker. Last year she said of Spiro Agnew: "The Vice President is incredible. It's amazing what he has done to the media, helping them to reform themselves. You can't underestimate the power of fear." In 1964, Tricia, then only 18, sent an admiring letter to Lester Maddox, later Governor of Georgia. She suggested that he might avoid serving blacks by turning his fried-chicken restaurant into a private club. Subsequently...
...police force went on a four-day schedule a year ago; since then the rate of increase in crime has been cut in half-partly because the policemen's ten-hour shifts overlap during the high-crime hours of 11 p.m. to 2 a.m. Patrolmen Bob Dawson and Ivan Neal put their additional day off to good use: both are studying for college degrees.

Transformed, in the second act, into a gossamer-clad Wili, she showed little tenderness, but conveyed a remote melancholy. Always, when she broke into dance, there was that sudden transformation of earth-bound mortal into incredible creature of some other...

But to those of us who love him, he's only a little to the south of John C. Calhoun." Outraged readers scrawl obscenities on his columns and mail them back to him, which amuses him; radical students hiss and turn their backs on him at campus lectures, which hurts his feelings.
