...Brzezinski, a Humphrey adviser. "And you can say they are doing it because they think that if he's elected, tensions will increase." "They are concerned," adds Yale Political Scientist Frederick Barghoorn, "about creating pressure against anyone who is for a hard-line American policy. If they could swing a couple hundred thousand votes against Nixon, they would do it." Other Kremlinologists doubt, however, that the Russians would base their policy on so uncertain a premise...
Soul Content. Last week he was even ready for his first major swing through the South. He managed to draw some friendly crowds while evoking no visible hostility. Yet his stop in a black neighborhood in Atlanta, like an earlier visit to Pittsburgh's Negro Hill district, displayed again his failure to stir black enthusiasm. Asked why black Democrats should support him instead of Humphrey, McCarthy replied: "I haven't really made much of an argument that they should, except that if we pursue the war, there's not enough money to take care of poverty programs in this country...
Daltrey swivels and kicks one foot up-and-out from his slippery hips, churning arms, sings into the mike.

The latest Gallup poll showed that Wallace has steadily gained popularity not only in the Solid South but elsewhere in the country as well...
...Make It. And he is running hard. Not since 1884 had a presidential candidate visited Middleboro, Mass. When Wallace spoke there last week on a swing through the state, bringing his message of exasperation and estrangement, he won sympathetic audiences. Taking a leaf from McCarthy, George sent 100 polite, properly accoutered students into Massachusetts to help win the 61,238 signatures he needs to get on the ballot. "If we make it in Massachusetts, we'll make it in all the states," he said from behind the heart-high, bulletproof shield that protects him during speeches. Howling protesters tried...
