...settled. Protested one pro-SALT Senator: "The s.o.b. has sold us out for his own private purpose." Said another: "Whatever credibility Church had as chairman is gone."

Bill Hall, the Lewiston, Idaho, Tribune's editorial page editor, wrote, "It's not a proud moment to have the Senate Foreign Relations chairman from Idaho trying to outdo every right-wing wacko in the Senate...
Last week U.P.I. President Roderick Beaton announced a plan to put his wire service back in the black by ripping a page from A.P.'s ticker: turning U.P.I. into a cooperative of sorts.

The first subway crowd is clamoring for the papers, mostly because they realize that the hillside they will sit on for the next twelve hours is cold...

They are greeted first by a battalion of souvenir hawkers peddling commemorative medals, half a dozen brands of Pope programs, (the best of which has a full page of the holy father kissing the ground in different locales), dumb bumper stickers (I saw the Pope in Mass"), and blasphemous tee-shirts ("Pope Adds Life...
