Ever since his stinging reply to a letter from several Midwestern professors inviting him to a teach-in in April, Bundy has encountered increasing criticism from the academic community. When his sudden trip to the Dominican Republic prevented him from appearing at the nationally-televised Washington teach-in, protests became louder...
...past dozen years, doctors have tried no fewer than 50 promising drugs and other treatments for multiple sclerosis. In no case has the promise been fulfilled. "MS" remains an inexorable and eventually fatal disease, especially baffling because in its early stages victims may have sudden and severe attacks of partial paralysis or blindness, then make what seems to be a good recovery.

"All of a sudden the back end started steering the front," Parnelli shuddered later. The car slammed into the wall, slid 570 ft., spun, slid again, and finally came to rest 110 ft. onto the infield grass...
