Lackey had told how the three white men returned to an Athens garage operated by Herbert Guest, 37.

As soon as we got back to Guest's garage, both Myers and Sims cleaned the shotguns in the garage. They wiped the guns...

They are buzzing all over the place-putt-putting up and down San Francisco's hills, snaking doctor, lawyer and merchant chief through the thromboid Los Angeles freeways, threading Chicago's Loop at rush hour, beating the parking problem on Manhattan's Madison Avenue.

Even before the G.O.P. Convention in July, the sturdily Republican Wisconsin State Journal in Madison, which in more than 100 years has never supported a Democrat for President, announced that it "could not and would not" support Goldwater. In Vermont, the jointly owned Barre-Montpelier Times-Argus and the Rutland Herald declared last week for Johnson, despite an unblemished allegiance to Republican presidential nominees that goes back...
