...appreciate results, don't we? Ohio State, Oklahoma and USC play great football and we love to watch and we all love a winner and who really cares what happens to all those big dopes that beat the hell out of each other and tear up their knees and never learn to read past the sixth grade level.

Police in Warrensville Heights, Ohio, were appalled last week when a live telecast showed Gunman Cory Moore where sharpshooters were stationed as he held Police Captain Leo Keglovic hostage. "They knew Cory had a TV," fumed Police Chief Craig Merchant. When Cory saw the broadcast he shouted into a telephone: "Everything's off right now!"

The Wisconsin legislature is now considering several bills that...

Bolton was named to succeed her husband Chester in the House when he died suddenly in 1939 because, presumably, "I knew his thinking. Actually, I didn't have the slightest idea what he thought." Deemed the "Congressman's Congressman" by Eleanor Roosevelt, Bolton was the ranking Republican on the House Foreign Affairs Committee when she was defeated for re-election at the age of 83. An internationalist, she was fascinated by Africa, often paying her own expenses to visit...
