...seem any closer for the beleaguered MX missile, a prime object of congressional skepticism and budget cutting. A blue-ribbon bipartisan presidential commission headed by Brent Scowcroft, who was National Security Adviser to President Gerald Ford, is expected to recommend this week that production and deployment of the MX proceed.

"The artificial heart today is at the stage that the transplants were when those operations began 16 years ago," says Stanford Cardiologist Philip Oyer. "Then no one knew how a patient would do, and there was a lot of skepticism." An encouraging note is that the world's first mechanical-heart recipient survived nearly six times as long as the first heart-transplant patient, who lilived only 19 days. And Clark, for all his suffering, said he would not hesitate to recommend...
