Yesterday Volpe submitted a 17-page "study" to Richard Nixon which supposedly would reveal the type of man that the Republicans should nominate for vice-president. Conducted by James F. and Constance S. Collins, two statistical analysts, the study concluded that if the Republicans are to win in 1968 it is essential to have an Italian-Catholic on the ticket...
...July 19] really made me angry. Most young people, and even some older ones, date because they like each other. They see only human beings to date, to love, to work with.

Blandness seems to be the chief weakness of the World, as well as a certain amateurism. On page 3 of an issue last week, a story told how "Dick Gregory lay gravely ill" in a jail while friends feared for his life. On page 8 of the same issue was a photograph of Gregory just after his release from jail with the caption: "Dick's back." But to the faithful, the Daily World...
