Some longtime Kennedy supporters even seemed to be in the process of withdrawing from the family legend they had served so long. Theodore Sorensen, who supervised the drafting of Kennedy's televised explanation of Chappaquiddick, said on a television talk show last week: "I don't think that that, [his conduct] being so recent in the minds of the public, and that being so clear an indication of his action under pressure, he should try for the presidency in 1972." Privately, some of Kennedy's friends are baffled, and doubting even their own defense...
...Eastern Europe, the immediate effect of the invasion has been to slow down or snuff out entirely all but the most cautious experiments in economic reform -at least for the time being. Outside the Soviet bloc, the invasion has accelerated the fragmentation of Communist parties into rival factions, a process begun with the outbreak of the Sino-Soviet schism of the early 1960s. It also greatly weakened Moscow's claim to be the sole rightful interpreter of the true path of Communism...
Metzger is pessimistic about the possibility of stopping the Rulison blast, but he feels that the Colorado Committee has achieved something merely by asking pointed questions.

During a 1966 suit calling for reapportionment of city-council electoral districts, Skolnick discovered that Federal Judge William J. Campbell had once been a director...
...strings. The resulting dialogue is almost Joycean in its plural textures and moment-to-moment subtleties. Recording studios also offer new technical means of composing, through such devices as the echo chamber, multi-track recording and tape superimposition. "In this way," says Poland's Krzysztof Penderecki, "the process of recording itself has become a means of composition as well as communication." Of course, none of this technical expertise would be possible without tape, on which all LPs are originally recorded. And there are those who see tape-especially video tape, with which the home listener may some...
