...there are people in the U.S. who ought to know and do know. Many hours of our talks with Admiral Crowe were devoted to this topic. Quite recently the U.S. Chief of Naval Operations, Admiral Carlisle Trost said that everything should be done to keep the naval problem secondary. He doesn't want these negotiations, and he is not the only one. As for other concessions, they were made on both sides. If someone believes that we are eliminating more intermediate-range missiles than the U.S. and that this is a defeat for the Soviet Union, let them...
...mistrust. That is not surprising because in four years' ! time you cannot pull down mistrust built up over 40 years. As a Soviet military man, I am concerned by some actions of the U.S. I am saying this not to offend anyone but so that the American public will know. First, the U.S. and NATO are still pursuing a position-of-strength policy toward the Soviet Union and the Warsaw Pact. We have elaborated a new defensive doctrine and put it into practice.

...representative Terry Maxwell, 35, and her husband John, 33, a wine-company salesman, brought their year-old child to Seattle from Orange County just five months ago.

...sidekick on the much ballyhooed, short-lived Carson challenger, Thicke of the Night. Thicke remembers the young comic fondly. "I think I recognized that if anyone was going to be the Jackie Robinson of late night, it was Arsenio," he says. After the show flopped, says Thicke, "I know writers who removed my name from their resumes. Arsenio remained a friend in failure, and you learn to appreciate those people in a year like that...
...evening news the sharpest comedy on TV. Joseph Daly is a dead-on George Bush, and the dialogue is an S.J. Perelmanesque stream -- debased, obfuscatory and unconsciously self- condemning. Samples: "I wonder if I might ask the Senator to stop raking over dead horses"; "What did the President know, and does he have any idea that he knew it?" The lesson of recent scandals is both less and more alarming. If the bums are not thrown out, it is because an overly forgiving, or morally inert, American people allows them to stay...
