...Throughout Medium Cool, Wexler makes his presence known behind the camera. In what must stand as one of the most gripping sequences in modern film making, the Illinois National Guard fire tear gas at a group of terrified youngsters while one of Wexler's assistants is heard to scream off-camera: "Watch out, Haskell, it's real!" Still, Wexler's dramatic attempts to reconcile personal and public crises lead him occasionally to overload his film.

Dent softly denies all, saying that he wishes he had a fraction of the power attributed to him. "There's just a bunch of people over there at HEW," he told TIME Correspondent Loye Miller, "who, every time they see something coming they don't like, scream it's ole Strom Thurmond and Harry Dent." He insists that he serves only Richard Nixon, not Strom Thurmond, and that his real duties are mainly mundane matters of political coordination and patronage. One example: to steer Government legal work to Republican lawyers. "When I was practicing back in Columbia...
