...opened a Moscow bureau (cost: $75,000 a year), staffed by able B.J. Cutler. Under longtime Associated Press Correspondent Don (The FBI Story) Whitehead, its Washington bureau in the past two years has turned in many a solid reporting job, such as the series last year by Tom Lambert and Robert S. Bird on the inefficiency of military aircraft procurement policies...
...sham than slam to its competitor's exclusives, last week found much to savor when a jury acquitted Teamster Organizer Clyde Cardinal Crosby on charges of conspiracy to accept a bribe.

After listening to 70 hours of conversations between the key figures, tape-recorded by Elkins when he suspected a doublecross, Turner and Lambert spent three perilous months checking and double-checking the tale of the tapes. In the course of their investigation, they came to be called the Rover Boys by fellow newsmen, Fishface and Bug-Eyes by wary racketmen...
