Pennsylvania. To get into Congress in 1960, Republican Richard S. Schweiker had to buck G.O.P. pros. Now he has ousted two-term Democratic Senator Joseph S. Clark. A prosperous tile manufacturer and a Schwenkfelder-a member of one of Pennsylvania's "plain" sects-Schweiker, 42, does not smoke, rarely drinks, and then only wine. A self-styled moderate, he is an outspoken civil rights champion and an earnest advocate of draft reform...
Developed at Indiana University by Dr. Joseph C. Muhler and Dr. George Stookey, the prophylactic paste embodies more than 20 times the fluoride concentration of toothpastes now on drug-store shelves. The sweet-tasting paste polishes teeth as well. Dr. Muhler, who developed Crest, the first patented stannous-fluoride toothpaste, is a staunch supporter of fluoridating water supplies.

...ward-fellows. The inmates of Solzhenitsyn's ward include men and women from the farthest reaches of the Soviet Union -peasants, ex-prisoners, exiles, bureaucrats, students. When confronted with death, they express jagged-and politically damning-insights into the everyday enormities of life as it had been under Joseph Stalin. Perhaps most shocking are the flashbacks of a powerful party functionary, now suffering from cancer of the throat, who recalls denouncing a friend to the secret police so that he might acquire the other half of their shared apartment...
