...cover and official seal, the pamphlet from the Senate Subcommittee on National Security and International Operations looked as dull and uninviting as any other Government document. Even the Government Printing Office has its sleepers, however, and Of Specialists and Generalists quickly became the hottest item in Washington. A 71-page compilation of commentary from ancient and modern thinkers, it deals with the question of which is preferable: the specialist with expertise in one field, or the generalist, with broader, if shallower, wisdom. In an age where much rests on the judgment of public men, the question is of considerable interest...
...place can really be a castle. London newsmen trailed Jackie to Lee's 49-acre estate, where a photographer snapped her standing alongside Dancer Rudolf Nureyev, bundled against the chill in a shapeless and unbecoming brown beret, blue jacket and grey trousers. And one woman's page writer waspishly suggested that in future Jackie reserve such headgear for her bath.

Both convicted murderers were challenging the constitutionality of the death penalty, and they could hardly have picked a more promising time or place for their plea. Their lawyers could argue with considerable authority that Western society has come to look upon execution as a cruel and unusual form of punishment. And the California court could be expected to listen sympathetically; it has earned a reputation...
...buyer knows, things rarely turn out that way. Last week, confirmation of that fact came from the Federal Trade Commission, which concluded in a 205-page report: "Service retains the status of a 'necessary evil' in much of the automobile business." The report, which will lead to full-scale hearings on warranties in January, makes clear that as sales continue to rise service can only become more necessary-and more evil...
