Washington Correspondent Richard Saltonstall, who extensively interviewed this week's cover subject also had a preview of another important document. Since his days as a Seattle newsman, Saltonstall has been a longtime friend of Governor Dan Evans; he listened critically as the Governor delivered his keynote address into a tape recorder in Olympia. Before he flew off to Miami Beach with Evans, Saltonstall was able to give the editors in New York in advance a good idea of just what the G.O.P. keynote speech contained...
...broke Smith's jaw. Next day, Mailer and Actor Rip Torn were doing a scene-and pow again! Torn whammed Mailer over the head with a toy hammer, to which Mailer responded by chewing away on Torn's ear. "I was making a movie on a violent subject," said Norm.

...leads to the degradation of women, noted Dr. Andre Hellegers, a professor of gynecology at Georgetown University, "was a gratuitous slap at Protestant wives." Mrs. Walter Campbell of Cambridge, Mass., a former president of the Massachusetts Planned Parenthood League, objected to the tone of the encyclical: "Why, in a subject that concerns marriage and the family, is this addressed to 'Venerable Brothers and Beloved Sons'? Where do the women come in?" More seriously, assailants of the encyclical were disturbed that it was a one-man decision reflecting a minority view within the church and not a consensus...
