Equal Evidence. Last week this increasingly debated impasse was broken in Connecticut's federal courts by Yale-trained U.S. Attorney Jon O. Newman, 34, a rising protege of U.S. Senator Abraham Ribicoff and a former law clerk of Chief Justice Earl Warren. Laying down a new rule that startled many crime-conscious citizens and many disappointed prosecutors, Newman announced that in his district, "full disclosure of the prosecution's evidence will be made to defense counsel a week before trial, provided defense counsel discloses to the prosecution the evidence to be presented by the defense...
...skepticism is ironic, for never before has the investigation of a historic event been launched so promptly for the expressed purpose of dispelling uncertainty. One week after the murder, President Johnson appointed an august group of seven men, headed by U.S. Chief Justice Earl Warren, to "satisfy itself that the truth is known as far as it can be discovered." The Warren Commission had an unlimited budget and access to all the investigative talents and tools of the Federal Government. With the help of a full-time staff of 26-mostly legal experts-it published a lucid, tightly written...
...When we started playing, man, they forgot all about Viet Nam." It was Jazz Pianist Earl ("Fatha") Mines crooning as he and his cool, cool sextet finished up a six-week gig around Russia.

...June to an officially cool reception. After the bombing of the Hanoi-Haiphong oil depots, the Russians stood the Americans up at a scheduled Soviet-American track meet in Los Angeles; when U.S. swimmers came to Moscow, Pravda reported the meet without mentioning them. Last month American Jazz Pianist Earl ("Fa-tha") Hines's sextet, on an official tour of Russia, found its bookings in Moscow and Leningrad suddenly canceled, was detoured by its government hosts to a string of Off-Broadway stands in the Black Sea area...
...never tried to alter his style to serve fashion. Hines's playing today, save for a heightened sense of surprise, is practically the same as it was when he came out of Pittsburgh as the most original jazz pianist around. His own father had played the cornet, and Earl adapted its lusty, brassy quality to the keyboard, learned to chop out big, gaudy chords in order to be heard through a blaring orchestra. The technique was further refined when he teamed with Louis Armstrong in 1928 for a memorable series of recordings. Recalls Hines: "I wanted to play like...
