...consign Rockefeller's prospects to the nether regions, it did occur at an awkward time for him. He undoubtedly won further sympathy from labor by refusing to break a strike, but to get his own party's nomination, he needs support from the Republican right-the very segment that would be most offended by his coddling of the sanitationmen's union. Richard Nixon, campaigning in New Hampshire, drew fervent crowd response by siding with Lindsay. "Breaking the law of the state," Nixon declared, "cannot and must not be rewarded." Ronald Reagan observed that Rockefeller was "treading...
...another large segment of exiles, the rationale is less articulate and perhaps myopic. Most of the radical Americans in Montreal are either college dropouts or recent graduates. But the publicity that has attended their exodus has filtered down to a younger and more naive group. More and more high-school dropouts, teeny-boppers, and hippies are arriving in Montreal armed with little money and less ability to rationalize what they are doing here...

...heart's arteries, developed at the Cleveland Clinic by Dr. F. Mason Sones Jr. Relying on these, two of the Clinic's surgeons, Dr. Donald B. Effler and Dr. Rene Favaloro, have performed 51 operations of a new and promising type. They cut out the diseased segment of the coronary artery itself. Then they replace it with a graft. But unlike the transplant surgeons, Dr. Effler's team has no worry about rejection because it gets the graft material from one of the patient's own saphenous veins (in the thigh). Two of these patients died...
