...Munoz retired three years ago in favor of his protégé, Roberto Sanchez Vilella, but has remained a powerful force in favor of the commonwealth. When Governor Sanchez doomed his political career last March by spurning his wife of 31 years in favor of a comely aide, Muñoz took over the Popular Democratic Party's drive to retain common wealth status. Ever since, he has been stumping like a young Congressman, speaking to small groups of party regulars and on radio and television. Once a hot-eyed independentista who called the U.S. an "opulent kleptomaniac...
...preventing the implantation of fertilized ova in the uterine wall? Searle's Dr. Thomas P. Carney is searching for a chemical that will serve to activate the specific muscles involved.

Though neither his name nor his mu sic has ever appeared on any of the popularity polls, Eric Siday is one of the highest-paid and most frequently played composers in the world. No day goes by, in fact, that roughly 80% of the U.S. population does not hear at least one of his compositions. Among his most recent works is the one that goes bing, bong, boing, Swurpledeewurpledeezeech! That little masterpiece is played as the TV announcer says "CBS presents this program in color," while CBS's trademarked "eye" goes swurpling across the screen...
