...House Democrats must stick to the party line, and they are preparing to discipline renegades severely by stripping them of seniority and desirable committee assignments if they fail to vote for Humphrey. House Republican Leader Jerry Ford has cannily avoided making any such threats to G.O.P. Congressmen. For one thing, he knows how much easier it will be for Republicans to pledge their support to Nixon than it will be for all Democrats-particularly Southerners-to promise in advance to back Humphrey. In fact, Ford is prepared to welcome defecting Democrats into the G.O.P. and assign them to new committee...

Indeed, when Marlene Dietrich returned to Broadway for a six-week engagement, the only thing that was different from last year's show was the opening number, a torchy ballad called Look Me Over Closely. Not that anybody in the theater waits for her invitation...
...garage below houses four cars (a Mercedes-Benz roadster and sedan, an Austin-Healey and a Corvette). Berthed at the dock out back is a 35-ft. ketch, Aisling (Gaelic for dream spirit), on which the Rowans spend most weekends. "These signs of success," Rowan says, "are nice things, appreciated and prized. But you know, more important and more rewarding than any of these things is doing your own thing and having other people say, 'Yeah, baby! Go! Get it on! Hey, that's funny! That's good! I forget what was bugging me while...
