...sordid details. Instead, they write amazingly sympathetic stories slanted toward the brave-whites-fighting-off-savage-hordes-in-darkest-Africa line. This spring, for instance, after the guerillas had shot down a Rhodesian Airways plane, Burns hopped the next flight and wrote about the whites gulping down the whiskey straight and nervously joking while the pilot did evasive maneuvers. Such brave folk...
...diners to drink Scotch instead of sake. But today millions of homes and almost every bar and restaurant stock at least some of Suntory's 15 brands. In price and quality, they range widely. The pedestrian Torys costs $2.25 a fifth, while Suntory's best, called The Whiskey, goes for a heady $250.

Not to be outdone, a Krueger aide recently sent an article to newspaper editors all over the state which insinuates that Tower is a womanizer who likes his whiskey. The ploy so incensed Tower that he canceled four joint T.V. appearances with Krueger, claiming that his rival is "uninhibited by the truth."
