Comrade Wang Tung-Hsing's Report on Ideological Conditions in the Central Garrison Because of the far-reaching effects of the class struggle, especially the Two-Road Struggle in the villages on ideology, and also the natural disaster which happened last year and this year, there is some unrest in thought among a part of our comrades. The soldier Chang Lichen said: "At present, what the peasants eat in the villages is even worse than what dogs ate in the past. At that time dogs ate chaff and grain." Commune members ask: "Is Chairman Mao going to allow...

Since increasing numbers of reputable, middle-of-the-road gynecologists and other doctors have taken to prescribing estrogens, even though they may not accept Dr. Wilson's more extravagant claims, two questions are constantly reiterated: How safe are the hormones?

Daily Coiffure. Raised in Augusta, Ga., Brown trained to be a boxer before he went on the road to sing gospel-derived songs. Now 34, he has assumed all the trappings of his self-proclaimed role as "the biggest Negro cat in show business right now." He is attended by two hairdressers who give him a daily coiffure, sleeps in a round bed, owns a fire-engine-red Sting Ray and a brace of Cadillacs. For his show, he writes his own songs, does all the arranging, choreography and costume designing (including his own wardrobe of 150 suits...
