...heat of the San Joaquin Valley during grape-picking time must surely rival hell in its intensity. I lasted less than one day picking, or more accurately "cutting" grapes; and I can testify that picking cotton is fun compared to that...

During Apollo 10, Correspondents Lee and Neff questioned NASA's announcement that ground controllers had tracked the lunar module to a point 9.4 miles above the moon's surface in its lowest pass. The definitive figure should have come from the LM's radar, which must accurately gauge the spacecraft's distance from the moon.

Now he must also contend with an obdurate union, whose president, John Desmond, has custom, state law and the public on his side and has vowed to defend the seniority system in court...
