From every indication, Wallace is not exaggerating. A Gallup poll last week showed that millions of U.S. union members are turning to Wallace, with 50% declaring for him in the South, 12% in the rest of the nation. Humphrey's labor support has fallen correspondingly, to only 42%. Since Gallup began surveying union people in 1936, no other Democrat has ever done so poorly with blue-collar workers. There is a good chance, too, that union men-as well as the legions of other middle- and lower-middle-class people at whom Wallace's appeal is aimed-will...
...experienced or impressive prospects at quarterback and end. Further, with only 14 lettermen back, the problem of depth, especially in the offensive line, loomed significant. In addition, Yale and Princeton, which both beat Harvard last year, were returning exceptional quality and quantity from their excellent 1967 teams, with the rest of the league rating as strong or stonger than last season...
WHATEVER the rest of the country may think of Mayor Richard Daley and his Chicago police, he is clearly a hero on his own turf. That became evident last week when Chicagoans, responding to worldwide criticism of Daley and his cops' tough tactics, reacted as if they had been under personal attack.

In the drab Six Corners neighborhood on the Northwest Side, Construction Worker Arthur...
...Administration's arguments against a bombing halt rest on both military and political considerations. Understandably, U.S. generals want to take no more chances than they absolutely have to, and they want to keep allied casualties as low as possible. Stopping the bombing, they reason, would only result in heavier Communist infiltration, increasing the danger to allied fighting men-particularly the U.S. and Vietnamese troops in northernmost I Corps, which borders on the Demilitarized Zone. President Johnson reflected that view in a speech last month when he asserted that "we are not going to trade the safety of American fighting...
...political side of the case against a halt is less precisely stated. Essentially, it rests on the negative fact that no one in Washington has any idea if and how a halt would influence the Paris talks. Pessimists in the intelligence community are convinced that a unilateral U.S. concession would simply lead to another difficult demand by Hanoi. The North Vietnamese might well, for example, insist that since the U.S. and North Viet Nam had finished the pressing business between them, the U.S. could now go talk to the National Liberation Front about the rest of the war. That...
