...Donnell, a Long Beach, Calif., businesswoman and pioneer aviatrix, charged that Mrs. Schlafly's right-wing views would create dissension in the ranks of G.O.P. distaff stalwarts in '68. Gladys also challenged some of her rival's original notions: one of Phyllis's more notable contentions is that the Johnson Administration has laid plans to legalize polygamy for the elderly. Anyway, observed Mrs. O'Donnell's ladies with quiet satisfaction, any responsible mother with all those children ought to be home with her family. After two days of such deep philosophical meowing, the delegates...

They are allowed three "late night" permissions for the entire summer, subject to prior blanket permission from their parents and specific authorization from their...
...military's mood was not improved when placard-waving, pro-Papandreou forces took to the streets, battling right-wing students in Salonica and police in Athens. "This will be a constitutional deviation, a royal dictatorship," Papandreou predicted. "We have only one answer: a people's revolution." To this the King replied: "If Papandreou starts a revolution, I will start the counter-revolution."
