Dandling a copy of his bestselling baby book on one knee, Dr. Benjamin Spock, 64, attempted to define himself before the television cameras in his Manhattan apartment. "I'm not a pacifist," declared the man who was once more concerned with diaper rash than diatribes. "I was very much for the war against Hitler and I supported the intervention in Korea. But in this war, we went in to steal Viet Nam." Spock's efforts to foil that imagined attempt at grand larceny led last week to his indictment by a federal Grand Jury on charges that could...
...Rash of Shots. That competence has been dramatically demonstrated in the past five years. Of the five Mariner shots launched during that period, Van Allen noted, three were notably successful. Mariners 2 and 5 flew past Venus, returning vast quantities of information about the planet's atmosphere, temperature and thermal and magnetic properties. Mariner 4 successfully transmitted pictures of the Martian surface and continued to operate for more than three years, sending information from distances as great as 200 million miles as it went on into orbit around the sun. Yet all this was accomplished, Van Allen points...
...launches of probes to Mars and Venus. But that success was the apparent soft landing of a working, instrumented capsule on the surface of Venus last October, a feat indicating that the quality of Russian planetary probes is beginning to catch up to the quantity. U.S. experts expect a rash of additional Russian planetary shots in 1969 and the early 1970s, including a Martian soft-landing attempt as early...
...list lengthens with every game, and a rising chorus is beginning to suggest that the rash of injuries is more than just the breaks of the game.

When you put enough cash on the line, says Caffey, "it tends to bring out the best in people...
...flamboyance and wit as a designer, and as a raconteur among friends, Gernreich is so shy and nervous in public that he sometimes breaks out in a rash, incessantly smokes black Sherman's Cigarettellos. He is not married, but unlike many designers who squire their customers to public events, he shuns big parties and nightclubs. Instead, he prefers entertaining small groups in his modern split-level Hollywood Hills house, which he has decorated in austere white with leather-tile floors and classic Mies van der Rohe and Charles Eames furniture...
