Rogers' prime target has been J.P. Stevens & Co., the second largest U.S. textile maker, which for more than 16 years has fought off unionization despite repeated warnings by the National Labor Relations Board and three contempt citations by federal courts.

The only real ideologues on the high bench are Rehnquist on the right and William Brennan and Thurgood Marshall on the left. Brennan, often a dissenter in the past, found himself in the majority in several key cases this year, and he wrote the majority opinion in the Weber case. That is an indication, says Stanford Law Professor Gerald Gunther, of a less conservative tilt to the court. Isolated on the right with Rehnquist is Burger.
