...control advocates is a system of dual registration, similar to the one for autos. The driver is licensed, and his vehicle is registered separately. The same principle could apply to guns ?licensing for the owner, registration for each of his firearms. It would be a nuisance, to be sure, but, given the destructive power of guns, it would hardly be an outrageous imposition in an industrial society that demands registration of cars, businesses, private planes, dogs and marriages, as well as prescriptions for many mild drugs. Even the Bedouins of Jordan, rootless wanderers and fierce individualists all, are required...
...mindful of the 1963 mess made by their counterparts in Dallas. Twenty-three of L.A.'s top cops have been assigned full time to the case, while a special three-man legal team, whose members have handled 200 homicide cases for the D.A.'s office, will make sure that neither Sirhan's rights nor potential evidence is perjured.

So is Composer Leroy Anderson (The Syncopated Clock) who was, to be sure, a U.S. military intelligence captain in World War II and Korea. So are Pulitzer Prizewinning Cartoonist Bruce Shanks of the Buffalo Evening News and Phil Santora of the New York Daily News, not to mention Newsday Publisher Bill Moyers, L.B.J.'s former press secretary. On the list too are Arthur Schlesinger and HEW ex-Secretary...
...Gaullists and their Independent Republican allies will win-or come very close to winning-the working majority that De Gaulle so dearly desires.
