William Parker, a 63-year-old native of Lead, S. Dak., is a crusty cop who neither drinks nor smokes, is married to a former policewoman, and lives in a modest suburban home protected by a massive chain-link fence. He joined the L.A. police force 38 years ago, won a law degree by studying nights and, though little liked by less austere fellow officers, rose rapidly. Parker was appointed chief in 1950. In a traditionally precarious post−the average tenure of his predecessors was 18 months−Parker has lasted 15 years, and made the Los Angeles Police...
Goldin will try to contact other national figures on the Washington journey, and if he can get them to come out against the microcosmic Aliston project, the publicity generated will certainly make it very tough on Mayer Collins. And it will sorely tempt more local officials to link their names to the growing list of those coming out in favor of the tiny group at North Harvard.

Singers -often out of necessity and insecurity -may harbor a somewhat inflated ego. But few of them could be considered outright dumb...
...miles from its spring-fed source until it spills into the larger Guadalupe River. But some 1,200 tubers flock to it on Sunday afternoons, mostly to ride the steep, 350-yd. stretch where the river swirls like a whirlpool bath. For the sake of togetherness, Texas tubers frequently link feet under arms and form an enormous water snake composed of 40 or 50 tubers. At the end of the run, few tubers have remained linked together, but all of them are usually ready to reform and go into the breach once again...
...NEUTRON ACTIVATION ANALYSIS links suspects to incredibly small bits of physical evidence that defy conventional chemical or spectroscopic analysis. Tiny flecks of paint from a jimmied door may turn out to be crucial when found on a burglar's clothing, simply because atomic particles emit specific radiation patterns when properly stimulated in a nuclear reactor. The patterns are projected on an oscilloscope screen, and if those from the burglar match those from the door, he might as well plead guilty. Developed by General Dynamics Corp.'s General Atomic Division, N.A.A. has already won convictions in Canada, New York...
