...hard, especially for a veteran newspaper hand like Mrs. Helen Delich Bentley, 45, for 16 years maritime editor of the Baltimore Sun. So there she was last week, still at work pending Senate confirmation, dictating a story over ship-to-shore radio from the mammoth ice-breaking tanker S.S. Manhattan on its voyage through the Northwest Passage to Alaska.

Minute Fact. What was once a lonely confrontation between Schaap and his tape recorders has gradually expanded into a community of scribes and transcribes. In the three-room Manhattan headquarters of the shop he calls Maddick* Manuscripts, the tape machines whir and the typewriters maintain a near-constant staccato.

A deacon by war's end, Pike zipped through heady advanced courses at Manhattan's Union Theological Seminary, and was ordained...
...Prediction is a useful thing for us social scientists," says James Barber, a political science professor at Yale. "It forces us away from the comforts of retrospection." Last week, in a paper delivered at the American Political Science Association meeting in Manhattan, Barber, 39, made a prediction of his own: under certain sets of circumstances "The danger is that Richard Nixon will commit himself irrevocably to some disastrous course of action...
