...part of his personal crusade against the war, Vaughn has offered to add his personal prestige to the campaigns of anti-war candidates. In 1968, he will whistle-stop through states where important doves, including Senators Church, Morris, McGovern and Gruening, are running for re-election...
...evangelist against this foolish suntanning habit," says U.C.L.A. Dermatologist Dr. J. Walter Wilson. "But trying to persuade people to stop lying in the sun for hours is as difficult as getting them to give up smoking." Simply put, suntans may look good but they are very bad medicine. The sun's rays eventually cause the skin to wrinkle and sag, aging effects seen most clearly on the back of a cowboy's neck.

Solid Payment. Last week, on its fourth U.S. visit, the Concertgebouw left New York on its way to the Midwest, playing college concerts at Yale, Rochester and Oberlin.

He advances like a boxer, stopping before the more loud-mouthed, hence less important, kids to draw back his fist and flex his forearm. Violence diffuses through the room like the smoke, and it is easy to forget that the friendly shoves are shoves. Then maybe a drunk comes in. Vic says to the stranger, "Go now. That kid in blue is drunk. He's crazy...
