Aura of Hysteria. Winner in a covert internal coup that ousted longtime CORE Leader James Farmer last winter, McKissick, 44, has lately steered his civil rights outfit, a leader in the movement in the '60s, away from gradual integration toward aggressive Desegregation Now. Almost all white members and most Negro moderates have either resigned or been nudged out of national policymaking positions.

...comfort in the fact that Los Vegas bettors, who are not in business to lose money, will not take any bets on Governor Brown. Though he is lagging behind in the polls (as he was against Know-land in 1958 and Nixon in 1962), they consider him a sure winner. It is a pleasure to be able to report at least one event of heart-warming familiarity in an otherwise war-torn political year...
