...represent the workers is false, they say; only 3% of California's grape pickers have joined his union. Chavez has not been able to strip the fields of workers and, they argue, even if he personally preaches nonviolence, his followers do not practice it. Packing sheds have been set afire, foremen threatened, tires slashed. Chavez also has outside help. Long-haired pickets came down from Berkeley in the early days of la huelga, and the union gets $14,500 a month in grants from the A.F.L.-C.I.O. and Walter Reuther's United Automobile Workers. By insisting that all workers join...
...wags to the conclusion that the White House has bet ter relations with Senators on the field than with Senators on the Hill. Bob Short, owner of the Senators, marvels that Nixon "knows more about baseball than I do. I was amazed to hear him say he'd been following the Senators on his trip to Midway." Nixon and David Eisenhower attend games together and frequently talk baseball. One re cent evening, the duo sped out to the stadium, Nixon rushing away from a press conference, David forsaking his bride...

They told us that if we dared shoot down one of their aircraft, world opinion would be against us. But now people see that we can shoot, and I hope it will be a lesson to any wild...
...Kennedy books go on and on. Now comes a volume that seems sure to drive one former member of the clan "up the wall," as the lady involved is wont to say. "My Life with Jacqueline Kennedy" was written by Mary Barelli Gallagher, a former J.F.K. secretary, and from 1957 to 1964 one of Jackie's girls-of-all-work. As Mrs. Gallagher tells it in the first of two Ladies' Home Journal exce'rpts, Jackie 1) spent more on "family expenses" ($105,-446.14, including $40,000 for clothes) in 1961 than Jack made as President...
