...populated with a standard cast - tyrants and victims familiar to viewers of the Late Show. Its captain, "Irons" Saul Pendleton, is a bit less bestial than the average; but the man-slaughtering first mate, Otto Lassiter, is one of nature's full-rigged monsters. The mate is more than a Caliban thrown in by the author for dramatic effect; as Hayden makes clear, such men were indeed sought out by captains, and prized for their lethal efficiency...
...agencies that set vaccine policy in the United States, the Bureau of Biologics at the Food and Drug Administration and the Center for Disease Control, tend to rely repeatedly on the same few experts for advice. For example, the Bureau's semi-independent advisory board is chaired by Saul Krugman, who gained notoriety (unfairly, some researchers believe) for infecting retarded children with hepatitis in order to study their condition, and many other members of the board have also experimented in state schools for the retarded.

Illinois Governor-elect James Thompson and Wayne Rogers have learned it and, at a California club partially owned by OJ. Simpson, so have many others. In fact, nearly 3 million people have taken up racquetball-an indoor racquet game played on handball courts-in the past six years, making it the new boom sport of the tennis-conscious '70s. To accommodate it, new courts are rising as quickly-and conspicuously...
