Talking Wildly. Until that outburst, which made even the "old Nixon" sound moderate, Agnew had been a model of circumspection. Painstakingly coached by expert Nixon aides, he showed careful, frequently thoughtful preparation in his formal speeches. Speaking on his own, though, he hit an entirely different tone. Besides talking wildly of the Communist menace, he argued against "appeasement of militant minorities in the ghettos." Entering the Fortas controversy for the first time, he took the remarkable line that Earl Warren, "a very competent Chief Justice," was responsible for the whole fuss. By retiring "precipitately," Agnew said, Warren...
What was George Hamilton doing holding hands with that long, leggy Texas model, Alana Collins, and making all those fun Italian scenes from Rome to Capri? "Alana and I are just very good friends," George explained. As a matter of fact, he added, she was helping him scout the latest fashions for the string of boutiques he is being forced to open in New York, California and Europe. Forced? Well, it's either that or let Uncle Sam dip heavily into all that money that he's being paid for The Survivors, his new ABC-TV series that...
...idea for the race came from Caltech Physics Graduate Wally Rippel, 23, whose experiences with Los Angeles' eye-smarting smog had inspired him to create a fumeless electric car two years ago.

Fast, Period. Customers who do hold off until next year can expect evolutionary, rather than revolutionary, changes. Following the pattern of Chrysler, first of the Big Three to display its 1969s (TIME, Aug. 30), Ford and G.M. will offer minor styling changes on most models, major restyling on only a few. At Ford, the major work has been done on the full-size cars, including the LTD, which will be wider and lower, boast such features as a "flight cockpit" instrument array, a short rear deck and the long hood that is fast becoming a Detroit cliche. Mustang...
After his two terms as a progressive, popular Governor, the New England liberal came to Washington with an understanding of legislative procedure that served him well in skirmishes against the Bourbon craftsmen of the Senate's Southern bloc. In 1966, when Lyndon Johnson's Model Cities proposal was foundering, Muskie called the White House and explained why he felt the bill could not be passed as drafted. He then set to work hammering out an acceptable substitute, which he later guided to passage with a combination of eloquence and parliamentary skill. "The pages of history are full of the tales...
