There was a predictable note of triumph in the President's voice as he fastened a paternal gaze on the television cameras and intoned: "Both sides of the negotiating parties in the airlines strike are here with me to report that they have now reached agreement on the terms of a settlement." Lyndon had done it again: he had squeezed elbows, waved the flag and presto, solved yet another labor deadlock. Thanks to the old Johnson magic, the strike of 35,400 members of the International Association of Machinists against five major U.S. airlines was about to end after...

No doubt they that will know will know. Here below, we can only await the next installment of Time Magazine's running gloss on pop music drug allusions...
...problems, chances are good that Liz will survive. She has pulled through several others. When the First Lady made her whistle-stop tour of the South in the 1964 presidential campaign, Liz kept overworked, underfed reporters happy with a steady flow of banter and favors. Taking note of their sweaty condition, she announced: "On the theory that the press that bathes together stays together, we have reserved three rooms, baths, and showers and 150 towels at the Duval Hotel in Tallahassee tonight." To reporters who missed the train, she offered a tip, "In case you do get left, look...
