Pickrick Drumsticks. Democratic strategists made no secret of their fear that the outbursts could help trim their majorities in November. "If the rioting doesn't fade away-indeed, if there's renewed violence in the streets-it will hurt us," declared Vice President Hubert Humphrey as he stumped California and three other Western states. Just how much it might hurt Democratic prospects was demonstrated on the other side of the continent the same day. In Georgia, moderate former Governor Ellis Arnall entered a runoff for the Democratic gubernatorial nomination as a heavy favorite against Lester Maddox, a strident...
...only 4% last week. Brown, who greatly relishes the role of underdog, in the past has risen from all-but-certain defeat to fell such G.O.P. Goliaths as former Senate Republican Leader William F. Knowland in 1958 and Richard M. Nixon in 1962. Yet Reagan, who makes no secret of his inexperience in politics, in subtle fashion succeeds in projecting himself as the underdog...

He had turned down a $750,000 congressional appropriation for an official residence as unseemly in view of Viet Nam, so finally last week, "with the advice and counsel" of Wife Muriel, Hubert splurged $89,000 on a six-room co-op apartment in downtown Washington. "We just...
...infra-red sensors, similarly equipped planes have been making thermal maps showing the heat patterns of heavily forested areas in southern Thailand, which is presently plagued by Chinese-led bands of Communist terrorists. Once the normal heat pattern of an area has been established, trained operators of the secret equipment aboard the C-47 can quickly spot any thermal changes on the map - changes that could be caused by heat radiated from unusual concentrations of guerrillas or their vehicles...
