...does not seem sufficient to hang such a big dream on. Lawyers for the four Beatles had uncommonly long, closed meetings most of last week in Los Angeles, and were adamant about discussing none of the details. A West Coast promoter and part-time Barnum named Bill Sargent has offered the group $50 million for a reunion. Said Paul: "The only way the Beatles would come together is if we wanted to do something musically." The others say nothing.

Says Ethan Geto, one of Bayh's New York leaders: "Based on some early soundings, the majority sentiment [among Bayh's delegate slates] so far is clearly for Mo Udall." Other liberals are planning to abandon Sargent Shriver and Senator Frank Church -due to enter the presidential race next week-to go with Udall. Having grabbed the liberal banner and proclaimed himself "the only horse to ride," Udall has already started to concentrate his efforts on wooing the minorities and the more conservative blue-collar and labor Democrats...
