There will be other names floated in the coming months. Spontaneous and self-generated boomlets for the likes of House Budget Committee chairman John Kasich of Ohio, Tennessee Senator Fred Thompson and Florida Senator Connie Mack are as ephemeral as tulips in May. Reason: Even if Engler's performance proves otherwise, competing in the vice-presidential-nomination contest--through whispers, faxes and surrogates--is a good investment. After all, it's not just about 1996. If Dole loses, the outcome of the G.O.P. mating game will go a long way toward determining who jumps to the head of the pack...

Gore recently spent three hours in a bug-proof FBI vault questioning agents about their security plans. Almost 10,000 U.S. soldiers are slated to supplement workers in jobs where unscreened temps could make mischief, from bus drivers to cooks. The Federal Emergency Management Agency paid for some 110 Georgia state and local officials to attend a weekend course where they practiced how they would handle problems from mass heat...
Carswell was ranked third in the nation in the 3,000-meter race going into the meet, behind Air Force's Erik Mack and Cal Berkeley's Richie Boulet. Carswell, a two-time All-American who finished seventh last season at Nationals, showed confidence before leaving Cambridge...
