...prefers the rain and wind of the winter to the sun and clouds of the summer. There is a very good reason. Most of the summer people come to the Cape for the parties or the beaches. But the Cape has great natural beauty which many of them miss. And late in November or early in April the weather is nice, there are no crowds and this natural beauty shines through. I think it is the best time of year...

...Senators Edward Kennedy (D-Mass.) and McLellan, who died last year. Many observers contend that Kennedy co-sponsored the bill, an obvious attempt at compromise, despite its repressive sections in a self-interested maneuver for the chairmanship of the Senate Judiciary Committee.

Eastland (D-Miss.), the long-time chairman of that committee, decided not to retire, leaving Kennedy in the lurch with a bill he will have to see through to the bitter end. Kennedy has apparently pushed the bill through the Senate, but the going will be tougher in the House, and it may well...

...nasty twist for no apparent reason. Ordinary, glossy movie promotion pictures of Jill St. John, one of Henry's beautiful dates, were put into file folders, then given captions by several of the staff as we rode together on Air Force One. and periodically sent to Henry by messenger. Miss St. John was, in fact, fully clothed in all the photos. Haldeman has written that the pictures were nudes and that I forged "presidential memos to Henry complete with Nixon's 'bizarre demands' for certain types of action." That's a spicy little newsworthy story, but it just...

...14th daily airing of Shaun Cassidy's latest hit. Maybe the family mastiff took a nap atop Shaun's two albums (combined sales: 5 million copies), warping them into a couple of vinyl flapjacks. Maybe the picture tube in the TV blew out, and she will miss Shaun in this week's installment of The Hardy Boys. Maybe she has heard Shaun announce that because of assorted pressures, "I may never be able to have a relationship that lasts more than a few months...
