...operation, Dr. Paquin believes, is no more dangerous than it is for a grown woman to have her tonsils out. One obstetrician who agrees is Dr. John W. Walsh, 50, who expects to perform the fourth caesarean on Jackie Kennedy...
Died. Fintan Patrick Walsh, 67, president of New Zealand's Federation of Labor, a craggy bachelor who started as an organizer for the Seaman's Union, strode on to become unquestioned kingpin of New Zealand labor and one of his country's most important men, bitterly resisting all efforts by the nation's farmers (of which he was one of the biggest in the dairy field) to capture an increased share of government benefits at the expense of labor; of a heart attack; in Wellington...
Jackie's doctor-a personable Washington obstetrician named John Walsh, who calls Jackie's White House chores "the second hardest job in the U.S."-has recommended that she give up official duties for the duration.

Clerical interference is apparently no B.C. problem. All of its controlling trustees are Jesuits; the faculty has 143 of them, the world's biggest Jesuit teaching community. But the total faculty of 750 is full of non-Catholics, and free expression is the B.C. fashion. Washington's Catholic University recently banned a proposed speech by Germany's liberal Theologian Hans Kiing; Boston College warmly welcomed him, having...
