...widely known in recent weeks. Poher also repeated his attack on the government-run TV network, which has long and one-sidedly sung the praises of Gaullism. Said Poher: "This daily and insidious propaganda does not bring out the objective truth and reassure citizens." He promised, if elected, to see to it that the network was more evenhanded.

...hydrogen fuel in its core. It will then begin burning hydrogen in its outer layers and gradually expand-perhaps to 100 times its present size-turning into a giant red globe that will fill most of the sky when seen from earth. Unfortunately, man will not be around to see this spectacular view. The expanding sun will boil away the oceans, melt rock and heat the earth's surface to 4,000 degrees F. It will leave man's dwelling place a lifeless inferno...
