...candidate, 15,587; Maine's Senator Margaret Chase Smith, 2,120; and hapless Harold Stassen, 1,373. Almost all of New Hampshire's top Republicans were running as delegates for either Rockefeller or Gold-water-among them Senator Norris Cotton, former Governor Hugh Gregg, former Congressman Perkins Bass, and Doloris Bridges, widow of the late Senator Styles Bridges. All were beaten. Instead, New Hampshire's delegation to the July Republican Convention...
...outpost of empire in Cairo that burned down in 1952. Shepheard's, which opened last December in the Drake Hotel, is not a club-though that is not to say it is easy to get a table. It is also not a pure discotheque; a combo of drums, bass and xylophone plays along with the records...

In Laura and Portrait of Anne, both Davidson compositions, piano and bass complemented each other well...

Warren's rich, loping bass is well suited to Monk's rhythms if not his harmonic ideals; he is like a pony in pasture who traces his mother's footsteps without stealing her grace. Riley has just joined the band, but he could be the man Monk...
