...limited time only you too can run for President, date Diane Keaton and anchor the network news!" That offer isn't being made, at least not yet, but three people who pursue such interests-as well as five more equally busy gentlemen, from Statesman Henry Kissinger to Architect I.M. Pei-have lent their names and faces to a campaign designed to attract advertisers to some of their favorite publications. The journals all have small circulat.ions, and none bulges with ads. But oh what readers! Each of the endorsers subscribes to the magazine he is hawking; however, not all were...
Many view Brzezinski as a loose cannon, overeager and self-promotional to a fault, but the fact is that Carter's foreign policy accomplishments are his single political strength. Brzezinski comfortably accepts a great deal of the credit. He is the principal architect of Carter's human rights policy, identifying the U.S. with developing forces of change around the world.

As chairman of the Committee on Houses and Undergraduate Life (CHUL), he's in touch with students from each House and with freshmen representatives, too. But Rosovsky's attitude towards students participating in his large fiefdom surfaced during the development of the Core. At first, Rosovsky...
...chief architect of the 1972 SALT I accord, a shaper of SALT II and an old hand at analyzing the dynamics of the U.S.-Soviet relationship, Kissinger had long been awaited at the hearings. On Tuesday spectators began lining up for seats hours before he testified, and the Caucus Room was filled to capacity for his appearance before the Foreign Relations Committee. Thursday he came before the Armed Services Committee. Senators of both parties clearly were dazzled by Kissinger; their questioning was deferential and they frequently addressed him as "Mr. Secretary...
