State Rep. Dennis J. Duffin said Monday, "This issue is an engraved invitation to young men and women in my district to visit New York." Duffin, who opposes the raise, is one of several legislators from districts that border states with drinking ages at 18 years...
...forced expulsion of ethnic Chinese last spring, Viet Nam's lightning rout of Peking's client regime in Cambodia last month, and an intensifying series of incidents on the China-Viet Nam border. Vice Premier Teng Hsiao-p'ing repeatedly and publicly telegraphed the punch during his U.S. visit this month, railing against the "hegemonistic" ambitions of the Soviet "polar bear" and against Vietnamese "aggression" in Southeast Asia.

Neil is on his way out, and Helene, his foul-mouthed assistant, is on her way in, exhaling the dragon's breath...
