Covering the man who is creating the most new excitement in the Republican Party was the job of Washington Correspondent Loye Miller. It was an active assignment. Reporter Miller sat up with Barry Goldwater until 2 a.m. one night while the Senator talked on his short wave radio to a fellow ham on the Pacific island of Kwajalein, flew to New Mexico with Goldwater at the controls of his own twin-engined Beechcraft Bonanza, went back to Washington with Air Force Reserve General Goldwater piloting an Air Force T-39 jet trainer. It was an interview, Miller said rather proudly...

They also evoke it with the black-and-white camera of Old Master James Wong Howe...
...testing: the growing up of all those postwar babies who were born in fecund 1946 and are coming of age to enter the labor force (only 40% will go on to college). "Already our unemployment is concentrated among the 18-and i g-year-olds, and a tidal wave of them will hit us in 1964 and 1965," says Martin Gainsbrugh, chief economist of the National Industrial Conference Board. The number of new workers entering the labor force will soar from 1,200,000 in the last year to 2,500,000 next year...
