Berman, who is a New Yorker and a Jew, spoke with compassion of the woes of the Palestinian Arabs (he pronounced the word "Ay-rab" and referred to Sirhan as "Saran"). He dramatically underlined the word "intoxicated" (". . . while in a disturbed mental state, intoxicated and confused . . ."), an indication that the defense intends to bolster the contention that Sirhan was "out of contact with reality." This condition was induced, Berman said, when Sirhan "concentrated in front of a mirror in his own room and thought and thought about Senator Kennedy until at last he saw his own face no longer...

Today, nobody loses any hair under Segal's hands. In his perfected technique, hairdos are swathed in Saran Wrap before the plaster cloths are applied. In the case of nudes, Vaseline is used wherever the plaster might pull on body hair.

Because of the demonstration against a Dow Chemical Recruiter, I know of a couple of women who have been alerted to the maker of Saran Wrap's being also the maker of napalm. They are going to boycott Saran Wrap. As the editorial points out, Dow Chemical Company is not the only culprit and not the original one, but some exposure of industrial-military power in the country may help. The demonstration caused some persons to think...
