...once. Though nobody knew what Clifford told the President in private, studies from his staff tended to discount the value of continued bombing. "The results were so impressive," said one official, "that no one bothers to argue any more." Deputy Secretary of Defense Paul H. Nitze was said to share the antibombing predilection...
Some U.S. politicians have discovered that a better way is to let hecklers hang themselves with their own words. When Robert Kennedy visited Tokyo's Waseda University in 1962, he made a gallant attempt to quiet an anti-American mob by inviting the noisiest of the hecklers to share the microphone. Edmund Muskie, the Democratic vice-presidential candidate, used the same tactic this year with more success. And at a rally last week, Nixon made the best of a sticky situation by giving opponents an opportunity to criticize without heckling. He allowed 1,200 Syracuse University students to sing...
...women also serve-sometimes even as tactical consultants. Frequently a soldier's wife, on the advice of her astrologer, will tell her husband when to go into battle and when to stay home. The husbands listen. Officers' wives follow their husbands to the battlefield and sometimes share their fate. Duong Thi Kim Thanh was a former airborne nurse and South Viet Nam's first woman parachutist. She regularly accompanied her husband, Brigadier General Truong Quang An, to the front, carrying a commando's short-stock M-16 rifle in one hand and cakes and gifts...
Abortive Appearance. This season Meredith and Starr have had more than their share of companions in pain. Indeed, the outcome of the 1968 pro football season seems to be predicated on the survival quotient of quarterbacks. As of last week, no fewer than 16 signal callers in the two leagues have been sidelined with injuries for one or more games. Many of the injuries, like Starr's, could hardly have been prevented. Pete Beathard of the Houston Oilers (record: 3-5-0) was rushed to the hospital last month for an emergency appendectomy, while winless Philadelphia's Norm...
...narrow views. Since readers have sometimes discerned in TIME a special mixture of seriousness (not to say portentousness) and levity, it was easily assumed that the first quality stemmed from Luce and the second from Hadden. As Elson shows, that explanation is too simple. Luce had his share of irreverence, which he encouraged or at least permitted in his magazines; Hadden, on the other hand, was deeply serious beneath his frivolous exterior. They were both earnest about the need to inform America...
