...equipped with a pair of 30-mm cannons built into the fuselage. The Phantoms can mount 20-mm. cannons, but only in external wing pods, which are not as stable and accurate as fuselage-mounted cannons. The Phantom was designed to stand off at some distance and zero in electronically. In the duels so far, the MIGs have been unwilling to play that game, are ducking in close where missiles are virtually useless. An advanced Phantom with integral cannons is under development; in the meantime, for all the U.S. success thus far, the Pentagon at week's end prudently...
...Montana, conservative Republican Governor Tim Babcock, 46, opened his drive for the U.S. Senate against liberal Democrat Lee Metcalf, 55, the incumbent, by buying a $69,000 twin-engined plane for campaigning. Babcock is expected to zero in on Metcalf's record as one of the Senate's leading critics of the Viet...
Adequate = Zero. Gomulka had already vetoed a visit to Czestochowa by Pope Paul VI to celebrate a millennial Mass, but now he seemed intent on keeping Catholics of all ranks-as well as others-away. Visas have been denied to the 150 foreign bishops, archbishops and cardinals invited to Czestochowa.

...November, Congressmen have grown understandably edgy not only about Viet Nam but also over inflation and the possibility of tax increases. Congressional Republicans, who wholeheartedly back the U.S. objectives in Viet Nam, have deliberately withheld criticism of the specifics of Administration policy-largely in hopes that they can thus zero in on Democratic divisions over the war as a campaign issue. The G.O.P. also regards itself as the natural political beneficiary of wage-price inflation, insisting for the record, if not by its votes, that the most potent cure would be a cut in domestic spending...
Tart Suggestion. Revolution or not, the hormone replacement program that Dr. Wilson advocates is designed to deal with a process of nature. A woman's output of sex hormones, which come mainly from her ovaries, decreases with the menopause and nears zero as she nears 80. This would cause little distress if the only function of the hormones was to preserve her monthly cycle of ovulation and menstruation-it would simply mark the end of her fertility period. But some of the hormones, especially the estrogens, fill many other biological needs. They help to keep the breasts firm...
