...Street has the aura of ad lib, the spontaneity of a playground game with celebrities and characters. In fact, it is as meticulously planned as a semester at medical school. From Palmer's research department, program subjects flow to the production office, then get channeled to Head Writer Jeff Moss, a veteran of the Captain Kangaroo show. Three weeks before taping, Moss and his writers develop a script. Theoretically, their ideal viewer is poor and culturally deprived. Actually, the show catches the preschooler almost before his society does. Thus Sesame Street is as popular with the well...
Farther west, Nixon had selected five incumbent Democratic Senators as likely targets for unseating: North Dakota's Quentin Burdick, Wyoming's Gale McGee, Utah's Frank Moss, New Mexico's Joseph Montoya and Nevada's Howard Cannon. Conservatives were recruited to run well-financed campaigns against the ostensibly vulnerable quintet. Campaigners from Washington hustled through. Agnew anointed Moss "the Western regional chairman of the Radic-Lib Eastern Establishment." Moss was re-elected easily, and the four other Democrats also won. Three of the Republicans put up against the incumbent Senators were House members; Democrats captured those three seats...
Four sparsely populated Western states with Democratic Senators were the special targets of Nixon-Agnew assaults. In all four the voters returned the incumbents to office with convincing majorities. Sen. Howard Cannon of Nevada, Sen. Quentin Burdick of North Dakota, Sen. Gale McGee of Wyoming, and Sen. Frank Moss of Utah all won with better than 55 per cent...

Moss '71 said last night, "To my knowledge, in the past several years the CRIMSON has never endorsed a political candidate or attempted to influence legislation of any kind...
Like Cannon, however, Moss may benefit from the Agnew visits to the state. Utah voters are deeply resentful of "outsiders" and the Agnew visits could backfire. Moss will also benefit from his record as an opponent of cigarette advertising. Utah is a Mormon state and the Mormon church forbids cigarettes. A third factor in Moss's favor is the third party candidacy of Clyde Freeman. If Freeman can win five per cent of the vote or more, it should cut Burton's vote enough to hand the election to Moss. If Freeman run poorly, the race is a tossup...
