...willing to ignore. In the Senate, there are Oregon's Mark Hatfield, Illinois' Chuck Percy, Massachusetts' Ed Brooke; in the House, Illinois' Donald Rumsfeld and Texas' George Bush. The statehouses provide the largest contingent, for it is the Governors who most directly confront the nagging problems of urban America. There are New York's Rockefeller, Massachusetts' John Volpe, Pennsylvania's Ray Shafer, Rhode Island's John Chafee, Maryland's Spiro Agnew, Colorado's John Love...
...word in Dan Evans' vocabulary, to be used with intense, if low-pitched enthusiasm. Guided by the philosophy that "we have to act, not react," Evans has worked to prepare his richly forested state for the inevitable day when it moves "from a scattered open society to an urban society." Surrounded by a profusion of lakes and mountains, the Governor has the foresight to proclaim: "We have not suffered the silt and smoke of overindustrialization?yet.

...formula, we have Hawks's Rio Bravo or Ford's The Searchers, both of which use genre background as a means of allowing their protagonists the fullest range of individual expression. For all the cheap detective thrillers, we have Lang's The Big Heat with its articulate vision of urban corruption and the need to fight evil, or Nicholas Ray's Party Girl and the fascinating conflicts between man and a hostile environment. Hitchcock's commercial suspense thrillers discuss serious questions of the nature of guilt and redemption; even Hawks's funniest "screwball" comedies treat with equal gravity the need...
