His column, Washington Merry-Go-Round, gives his audience frequent scoops, but many of his fellow newsmen regard as frivolous his uneven mixture of muckraking and kiss-and-tell gossip. Last week, however, Anderson was basking in more serious attention, after his Merry-Go-Round grabbed off something of a brass ring.
