...monopoly on styles. The sprightly satires of Britons Richard Hamilton and David Hockney hang in the same gallery with their better-known U.S. pop equivalents, such as Tom Wesselmann and Robert Indiana. Indeed, it is Documenta's unity that last week prompted Sculptress Louise Nevelson to remark: "Usually an artist works in loneliness. But here, one suddenly experiences the kinship one always suspects one might have with the rest of the artistic world...
...known as "Snake," served for a year and a half on the vice squad, and he apparently enjoyed his work. It seemed as if his career had consisted of one case after another in which a man or woman had confronted him with some obscene gesture or lascivious remark. Senak admitted to Hersey that a "bad aspect" of his work was that he had never fallen in love with a girl before he joined the force. His arrest of some 175 prostitutes had given him, he said, "a sort of bad attitude toward women in general. I know all women...

And there is the criticism, sometimes justified, that...
Reporters faithfully attended the official briefings that both sides held after every meeting at the Majestic. William J. Jorden, the U.S. spokesman, used a low-keyed hands-in-pockets approach, correcting himself meticulously whenever he slipped. Witness his remark that U.S. negotiators had objected to bombing "statistics being thrown about -we don't say that-being used" by the North Vietnamese. His opposite number, Nguyen Thanh Le, displayed fragments of antipersonnel bombs and napalm canisters and endlessly recited the North Vietnamese demands. As the recitation came full circle for the second or third time, reporters began drifting...
